Usually this implies future availability (e.g., a new feature of a web-service API). 502 Bad Gateway The server was acting as a gateway or proxy and received an invalid response from the upstream server. 503 Service Unavailable The server cannot handle the request (because it is overloaded or down for maintenance). Generally, this is a ...
On the server side, the server has to read the diff file and make the modifications. This involves a lot of overhead compared to the PUT method. [11] On the other hand, the PUT method requires a GET to be performed before the PUT and it is difficult to ensure that the resource is not modified between the GET and PUT requests.
In HTTP, the GET (read), PUT (create and update), POST (create - if we don't have `id` or `uuid`), and DELETE (delete) methods are CRUD operations as they have storage management semantics, meaning that they let user agents directly manipulate the states of target resources. [4]
If a server responds to a POST or other non-idempotent request with a 303 See Other response and a value for the location header, the client is expected to obtain the resource mentioned in the location header using the GET method; to trigger a request to the target resource using the same method, the server is expected to provide a 307 ...
The HTTP/1.0 specification [49] defined the GET, HEAD, and POST methods as well as listing the PUT, DELETE, LINK and UNLINK methods under additional methods. However, the HTTP/1.1 specification [50] formally defined and added five new methods: PUT, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS, and TRACE. Any client can use any method and the server can be ...

By design, the POST request method requests that a web server accepts the data enclosed in the body of the request message, most likely for storing it. [1] It is often used when uploading a file or when submitting a completed web form.
This allows user agents to represent other methods, such as POST, PUT and DELETE, in a special way, so that the user is made aware of the fact that a possibly unsafe action is being requested. Because of this assumption, many existing CSRF prevention mechanisms in web frameworks will not cover GET requests , but rather apply the protection only ...
A rule of thumb in determining if a reply fits into the 4xx or the 5xx (Permanent Negative) category is that replies are 4xx if the commands can be repeated without any change in command form or in properties of the User or Server (e.g., the command is spelled the same with the same arguments used; the user does not change his file access or ...
