Request methods

The request method is the way we distinguish what kind of action our endpoint is being "asked" to perform. But we also have a few other methods that we use quite often.

Method	Description
GET	Used to retrieve a single item or a collection of items.
POST	Used when creating new items e.g. a new user, post, comment etc.
PATCH	Used to update one or more fields on an item e.g. update e-mail of user.
PUT	Used to replace a whole item (all fields) with new data.
DELETE	Used to delete an item.

Examples

Now that we’ve learned about the anatomy of our endpoints and the different request methods that we should use, it’s time for some examples:
