method-not-allowed

Description

The HTTP method used in the request is not supported for the target endpoint. The server understands the request URL, but the specific method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.) is not allowed.

Response Example

Code
{
  "type": "https://docs.kordiam.app/docs/errors/method-not-allowed",
  "title": "Method Not Allowed",
  "status": 405,
  "detail": "HTTP method 'POST' is not supported for this endpoint",
  "instance": "/api/v2/elements/42",
  "traceId": "abc-123-def",
  "supportedMethods": ["GET", "PUT"]
}

Common Causes

• Using POST instead of PUT for an update operation
• Using GET on a write-only endpoint
• Using DELETE on an endpoint that does not support deletion

How to Fix

Check the API documentation for the endpoint to see which HTTP methods are supported. When Spring can determine them, the response includes supportedMethods. Update your request to use one of the supported methods and retry.
