Usage of POST to update is so common, I don't think it's unreasonable to say it's a de-facto standard. Sort of like how if an English word/phrase is misused enough, the "wrong" version eventually makes it into dictionaries.
- gls2ro 5y agoThis is the first time I hear that usage of POST to update is common. Around me I cannot name one backend developer who will design an API with POST used for update. We did it in the past when browsers where not implementing PUT or PATCH but still sending method=PUT/PATCH as param. Of course this is my experience and I might be in a bubble.
