Roblox currently lacks any additional RESTful methods for HttpService other than GET and POST which makes using many third-party APIs impossible for developers. This is quite irritating as any developer who might require these methods would instead have to pay for the use of a server. Paying for a server might not be too difficult for developers that make money through DevEx, but for the average Roblox developer the cost is too intimidating even if it is just a few dollars a month. Additionally, many of these developers may not know how to set up their server to work with HttpService requests.
If Roblox were to support additional RESTful methods, such as DELETE and PUT, this would allow developers to do such things as update a trello board(including deleting cards, moving cards, etc.) and updating/deleting Discord and Trello webhooks directly from their game automatically. This can prove to be very useful for keeping track of live statistics and events in your game and would be a much more efficient replacement to using Data stores to keep track of data that is needed instantaneously.
I realize this has been requested before, but it’s been almost 2 years and we still haven’t heard if this is something that may be added. I feel like it definitely should as it would make HttpService much more useful.
I’ve been trying to get Redirecter to work with X-HTTP-Method-Override, but haven’t had any luck, as GetAsync would just give me the contents of the card, and PostAsync would error.
This has been the call I’ve made - there isn’t much to change here, so I’m wondering how you’ve done it, or what might be wrong with the code snippet above.
