Error message or informative response for publish of existing API Version

With production mode enabled for a catalog: if a new product (version) contains a modified API and there is already a published API of the same name and version the changes will NOT be published and reflected.

But publish of the API Product works and results in a success message (200 OK). Therefore the API Provider assumes the changes to the API were also published but they're not.
"200 ok" is both confusing and misleading.

Ideally the publish wouldn't go through in this case and the error message informs about the modifications in the API not being published and that a new version of this API needs to be created.

Alternatively, an adapted success message/response informs the API provider of this behavior.
Possible content along the lines of: API with this name and version already existed, potential modifications were not published.

Implementing a warning in UI would not solve our problem since we're mainly using the API to publish products and not the UI.
