## Server-side Validation

In my final example, we built something that makes use of Ajax to validate at the server. The form will ask you to name a new product and will then check to ensure that the name is unique.

In my final example, we built something that makes use of Ajax to validate at the server. The form will ask you to name a new product and will then check to ensure that the name is unique. We wrote a quick [Netlify](https://netlify.com/) serverless action to do the validation. While it isn't terribly important, here is the logic:

// bad product names: vista, empire, mbp
const badNames = ['vista', 'empire', 'mbp'];

if (badNames.includes(args.name)) {
reject({error: 'Existing product'});
}
exports.handler = async (event, context) => {

const badNames = ['vista', 'empire', 'mbp'];
const name = event.queryStringParameters.name;

if (badNames.includes(name)) {
return {
statusCode: 400,
body: JSON.stringify({error:'Invalid name passed.'})
}
} else {
return {
statusCode: 204
}
}

resolve({status: 'ok'});
});
}

```
