Where possible, this API strives to use appropriate HTTP verbs for each action.
| Verb | Description |
|---|---|
| GET | Retrieve existing data from HFD. This could include retrieving a payment method list or application data. |
| POST | Create a new resource such as an application, or perform an operation with a side effect such as stamping an e-signature or sending an email. |
| PATCH | Used for updating resources with partial JSON data. A PATCH request accepts one or more resource fields, in keeping with the “just send what you need changed” approach outlined in RFC 7396. |
| DELETE | Delete an existing resource. |
