Switch for tunneling of HTTP methods

The portal implementation allows you to simulate PUT and DELETE requests by tunneling, that is by using POST requests instead.

By default tunneling is disabled. To enable it, for example because you want to disable PUT and DELETE requests in general, but allow equivalent operations for REST services provided by the portal, set the property x-method-override.enabled to the value true in the portal configuration service ConfigService Resource Environment Provider in the administrative console. Although the property name only refers to one replacement, the switch actually applies to both ways of request tunneling as described in the interface.

For details about how to set portal configuration service properties refer to the topic about Setting configuration service properties.
