Definition

The request method defines the type of communication that must be specified for the given communication channel. It indicates the desired action to be performed on the identified resource.

Use

For communication via REST, the HTTP client is used. In this case the most prominent request methods are POST and GET. Further options are available, such as DELETE and PUT.

Dependencies

The value is transferred to the HTTP client (cl_http_client); invalid values are refused by this authority.
