 * Use below function we can send HTTP status code
 * return new WP_REST_Response($posts, 200);
 * EX :
 * $return = new WP_Error( ‘rest_cannot_edit_others’, __( ‘You are not allowed to
   create posts as this user.’ ), array( ‘status’ => rest_authorization_required_code()));
 * $egr_reponse = array(‘error’ => $return->get_error_message());
    $code = $return-
   >get_error_code(); $status = $return->get_error_data($code); $status_code = $
   status[‘status’]; return new WP_REST_Response($egr_reponse, $status_code);
