What should I reply PUT request?
If a new resource has been created by the PUT API, the origin server MUST inform the user agent via the HTTP response code 201 (Created) response and if an existing resource is modified, either the 200 (OK) or 204 (No Content ) response codes SHOULD be sent to indicate successful completion of the request.
Does PUT request have body?
If the request has neither, it has no body, and your server should treat it as such. That said it is unusual for a PUT request to have no body, and so if I were designing a client that really wanted to send an empty body, I’d pass Content-Length: 0.
How do I use Put request?
Use PUT when you want to modify a single resource which is already a part of resources collection. PUT overwrites the resource in its entirety. Use PATCH if request updates part of the resource. Use POST when you want to add a child resource under resources collection.
What does a PUT request do?
A PUT request creates a resource or updates an existing resource. The client specifies the URI for the resource. The request body contains a complete representation of the resource. If a resource with this URI already exists, it is replaced.
CAN PUT request have response?
If the target resource does not have a current representation and the PUT request successfully creates one, then the origin server must inform the user agent by sending a 201 ( Created ) response.
CAN PUT request be bookmarked?
PUT requests are never cached. PUT requests do not remain in the browser history. PUT requests cannot be bookmarked.
Does PUT request have a response?
Generally, when a PUT request creates a resource the server will respond with a 201 ( Created ), and if the request modifies existing resource the server will return a 200 ( OK ) or 204 ( No Content ).
Can we use Put instead of get?
Well, you do. The GET request returns current state, the PUT request changes the user selection. And then returns the new image as the result. Keeping the PUT data in URL is not REST like, yes.
What is the difference between POST and put request?
Should I use POST or PUT?
The POST method is used to request that the origin server accept the entity enclosed in the request as a new subordinate of the resource identified by the Request-URI in the Request-Line. Use PUT when you want to modify a singular resource which is already a part of resources collection.
How do I send a body in PUT request?
You can send data to the server in the body of the HTTP PUT request. The type and size of data are not limited. But you must specify the data type in the Content-Type header and the data size in the Content-Length header fields. You can also post data to the server using URL parameters with a PUT request.
