The limit of a GET request's length is at least several K on most systems I've used, so it's rarely an issue.

- paulddraper 3y agoThat's not as much as you might think. There's a reason elasticsearch accepts POST
- forgotmypw17 3y agoBut what exactly is the difference between POST and SEARCH? Both include the request parameters in the body, so they would be obscured from the user. Unless they aren't, in which case it is a matter of the choices made in the implementation. Is it implied idempotency and the lack of a confirmation dialog when the user reloads the page?
