Binding information​

Input Binding: no

Output Binding: yes

Output Binding operations:​

  • create: Alias for "post", for backwards-compatibility

  • get: Read data/records

  • head: Identical to get except that the server does not return a response body

  • post: Typically used to create records or send commands

  • put: Update data/records

  • patch: Sometimes used to update a subset of fields of a record

  • delete: Delete data/record

  • options: Requests for information about the communication options available (not commonly used)

  • trace: Used to invoke a remote, application-layer loop-back of the request message (not commonly used)
