Question

How to consume REST API POST, PUT and DELETE methods.

1

Hi all, I am new to the Mendix platform, I have two apps : for Expose data where I have exposed data with 4 method (GET, PUT, DELETE AND POST). to consume data (in this app I have successfully consumed the GET method) In the second app, I want to implement other 3 methods as well(i.e. POST, PUT and DELETE) but I don't have an idea how to do this, I search it over the internet, Mendix courses, and forums but was unable to find required information for how to implement these methods. Thanks in advance.

Hi Rahul,

In a microflow, you can call the ‘Call REST service’ activity in which you can select which method you want to perform on the endpoint:

So change the default GET method to Delete / POST / what you want. Remember that for a PUT and a POST, contrary to GET and DELETE a body is needed that is sent with the request.
