HTTP DELETE Method
Information about the HTTP DELETE method.
HTTP DELETE
Delete the resource.
- Request Body
Data in a request may be sent.
- Response Body
A response body may be returned.
- Cache
The response cannot be cached.
- Idempotent
The request should not cause any side-effects on the server and it should be possible to issue the same request several times with the server being left in the same state.
This is not enforced by the server and a common mistake is for an idempotent request to change the server state.
Example
DELETE /
DELETE /a-url/?search=cat
