HTTP Methods – RFC 7231/RFC 5789<br>
19
HTTP Methods GET
Retrieves data from a server at the specified resource
Often the default method for HTTP Clients
Safe and Idempotent
Cacheable<br>
20
HTTP Methods HEAD
Gets the resource but without the response body
Useful to verify resource availability before making a GET request
Useful for testing API availability
Safe and Idempotent
Cacheable<br>
21
HTTP Methods POST
Sends data to a server to create or update a resource
Unsafe and Non-idempotent<br>
22
HTTP Methods PUT
Sends data to a server to overwrite or create a resource
Unsafe and Idempotent<br>
23
HTTP Methods PATCH
Sends data to a server to partially modify a resource
Unsafe and Non-idempotent<br>
24
HTTP Methods DELETE
Sends data to a server to delete a resource
Unsafe and Idempotent<br>
25
HTTP Methods OPTIONS
Returns the HTTP methods supported by a server for a given URL
Safe and Idempotent<br>

POJO Plain Old Java Object<br>
29
public class Workspace { private String name; private String type; public Workspace(String name, String type){ this.name = name; this.type = type; } public String getName() { return name; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } public String getType() { return type; } public void setType(String type) { this.type = type; } }<br>

POJO Readability
Reusability
Easy access to data
Type Safety
Supports Serialization and Deserialization<br>
32
POJO Unnecessary code
Can be an overkill<br>
33
Challenges Different data type for “url” field in payload and response
Not asserting the “url” field<br>

Authentication/Authorization Who you are.
Proves your identity. Authentication What you can do.
Proves your right to access. Authorization<br>
36
HTTP Authentication Schemes Basic
Bearer
Digest
OAuth<br>
37
Basic Base64 encoded username:password in the header
Base64 encoding is not secure
Example:<br>
38
Bearer Bearer token
Bearer is a person or an entity who holds a security token to get access to a certain resource
Cryptic: Generated by the server in response to login
Originally created as part of OAuth2.0 spec
Example:<br>
39
Digest Challenge-response paradigm
Username and password is hashed using MD5 algorithm
Example:<br>
40
API Key Usually generated during first time login or during sign up
Used as a replacement for username and password
Usually fetched from account settings and often it is possible to delete, regenerate and create multiple API keys
Passed as a header or a query parameter or even in the request body.
Not secure
Example:<br>
41
