HTTP Request Methods

Establishes a tunnel to the server identified by the target resource, typically through a proxy.

Copies a resource from its current location to the URI given in the Destination header, in WebDAV.

Requests a representation of the specified resource. Requests using GET should only retrieve data.

Submits an entity to the specified resource, often causing a change in state or side effects on the server.

Replaces all current representations of the target resource with the request payload.

Applies partial modifications to a resource.

Deletes the specified resource.

Describes the communication options for the target resource.

Asks for a response identical to a GET request, but without the response body.

Takes out a lock on a resource to prevent conflicting changes, in WebDAV.

Creates a new collection resource at the specified location in WebDAV.

Moves or renames a resource to the URI given in the Destination header, in WebDAV.

Retrieves properties defined on a resource, and optionally its member resources, in WebDAV.

Sets or removes properties on a resource atomically in WebDAV.

A proposed safe, idempotent method for sending a query as a request body, for cases where GET's URI-only constraints are impractical. Still an IETF Internet-Draft — not yet an RFC.

Runs a server-side query described in the request body against a resource, in WebDAV.

Performs a message loop-back test along the path to the target resource for diagnostics.

Removes a lock from a resource using the supplied lock token, in WebDAV.
