Question

I’m sending requests to a third-party API. It says I must send an HTTP PUT to http://example.com/project?id=projectId

I tried doing this with PHP curl, but I’m not getting a response from the server. Maybe something is wrong with my code because I’ve never used PUT before. Is there a way for me to execute an HTTP PUT from bash command line? If so, what is the command?

Answer 1

With curl it would be something like

curl --request PUT --header "Content-Length: 0" http://website.com/project?id=1

but like Mattias said you’d probably want some data in the body as well so you’d want the content-type and the data as well (plus content-length would be larger)
