Question

I am designing a RESTful API for a booking application and was quite happy to see I could map all details of the application to the 4 HTTP methods.

/users - GET, POST
/users/({id}|myself) - GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
/users/({id}|myself)/bookings - GET, POST
/users/({id}|myself)/bookings/{id} - GET, POST, PUT, DELETE

Example: Updating my own user uses a PUT to /users/myself.

But now I found out that one thing is missing: The possibility to request a new password if I forgot my old one. Any idea how I could add this?

Answer 1

/users/({id}|myself)/forgottenpassword/, GET or PUT

or just implement some way of telling the user to go to the website.
