Switch for tunneling of HTTP methods | HCL Digital Experience
The portal implementation allows you to simulate PUT and DELETE requests by tunneling, that is by using POST requests instead.
By default tunneling is disabled. If you want to enable it, for example because you want to
disable PUT and DELETE requests in general, but allow equivalent operations for REST services
provided by the portal, set the property x-method-override.enabled
to the value true
in the portal configuration service WP
ConfigService Resource Environment Provider in the WebSphere® Integrated Solutions Console. If you set the property x-method-override.enabled
to true
, then the Config Service considers the x-method-override
request header, when a request comes in. Whether or not to send this
header is a decision of the HTTP client. Although the property name refers to only one replacement,
the switch actually applies to both ways of request tunneling as described in the interface.
