# Allowed HTTP methods

The API currently supports the following methods:

| Method | Description               |
| ------ | ------------------------- |
| GET    | Get one or several items. |
| POST   | Create a new item.        |
| PATCH  | Partially update an item. |
| DELETE | Delete an item.           |

{% hint style="info" %}
For **PATCH** requests, you are not required to send all fields in the request body. You can either update one field or more if needed.
{% endhint %}

If the usage of HTTP methods is limited in the library you're using, you can include a "\_method" parameter that has the desired HTTP method's name as value, in the query string or parameters of the request.
