First use the correct Express method to set an HTTP status. Then send a code indicating that the client has sent a bad request:
res.(__).json(data);

It's very helpful and very approachable and you shouldn't be afraid to consult it because looking up the answer isn't cheating! It's what developers do constantly every single day in their work. Second, to set an HTTP status on the response
object you use the status()
method, and pass it 400, which is the status code for Bad Request. So your code should look like this:
res.status(400).json(data)
Happy coding!
