2.2.1. Method

2.2.1. Method

The @method derived component refers to the HTTP method of a request message. The component value is canonicalized by taking the value of the method as a string. Note that the method name is case sensitive as per [HTTP], Section 9.1. While conventionally standardized method names are uppercase [ASCII], no transformation to the input method value's case is performed.

For example, the following request message:

POST /path?param=value HTTP/1.1 Host: www.example.com

would result in the following @method component value:

POST

and the following signature base line:

"@method": POST
