Answer» GET and POST are two different HTTP request methods. | GET | POST |
|---|
| This method is used to request data from a CERTAIN resource (via some API URL). | This method is used to send or write data to be processed to a specific resource (via some API URL). | | If you USE the GET method to send data, the data is added to the URL, and a URL can be up to 2048 characters in length. Therefore, it has restrictions on data length. | It does not impose such limitations. | | In comparison to POST, GET is less secure since data is sent as part of the URL. Passwords and other sensitive information should never be sent using GET. | It is a LITTLE safer to use POST than GET because the parameters are not saved in the BROWSER history or the WEB server logs. | | Everyone can see the data in the URL. | There is no data displayed in the URL. |
