MySonicWall API Reference Guide
Supported Request Methods
The MySonicWall API utilizes four of the methods that HTTP protocol (RFC 7231 and RFC 5789) defines to create, read, update and delete (CRUD) resources. Below table describes the supported HTTP methods.
| HTTP method | Description |
|---|---|
| GET | Retrieves the specified resource or collection of resources. GET is a read-only operation that does not alter appliance state or configuration. A GET operation should not contain a request-body. |
| POST | Submits data to be processed by the specified resource or collection of resources. In most cases, MySonicWall APIs uses the POST verb to create and add a resource to a collection of resources (for example, add a new Tenant or create a new user). |
| PUT | Updates the specified resource. The data included in the PUT request-body replaces the previous configuration. |
| DELETE | Deletes the specified resource or collection of resources. |
