What methods does HTTP use?

HTTP uses several main methods (HTTP verbs) that define the type of action on a resource:

• GET — request to retrieve data from the server. Safe and idempotent.
• POST — send data to the server to create a resource or perform an operation.
• PUT — replace or create a resource at the specified URI. Idempotent.
• DELETE — delete a resource.
• HEAD — request headers of a resource without the body.
• OPTIONS — request supported methods for a resource from the server.
• PATCH — partial update of a resource.

These methods allow the client to interact with the server, performing CRUD operations and other actions.
