I think that only request methods that can use a request body can use a request body. (However, it is only private use, then might not matter.)
One alternative way is to use a different protocol rather than HTTP, if that is applicable for your use. Another way is to make up a new LONG_GET method.
- larryfreeman 7y agoAs much as possible, we are trying to keep things simple and implement our service in a standard way. One suggestion was to use a POST instead. On the surface, it seems like a Get with request body seems like such a straight forward approach that I am hoping that this will eventually become standard. As far as I can tell, the only argument against this approach is that it is not standard. If it was a common approach and there was consistently 3rd-party support, would there be a problem with this approach?
