DELETE vs POST with header when removing permission from list item

Posted on by 1,875 Season of Giving Solutions 2025
I were doing those 2 actions for Deleting Item Permission + Grant Read Permission :-
 
 
the 2 requests were POST and the first one was with "X-HTTP-Method:Delete" header.
 
now i tried to combine those 2 requests inside one BATCH request, as follow:-
 
 
But this did not remove the permission, and to remove it i need to do an explicite DELETE request instead of POST, as follow:-
 
 
 
so why passing a POST request worked inside the action, while did not work inside the BATCH request?? and which appraoch is the correct one?
Thanks

    I think this is the limitation of Batch request.
    You could check 2.1 Batch Request Headers for more details.

    @johnjohnPter, What do you mean by you were able to delete by DELETE?
     
    Do you want to batch delete by delete method or x-http-method with DELETE?
     
    You can use Delete method in batch request, it is no issue.
     
    If you want to send request with x-http-method with DELETE, it will not take effect, the link has shared that x-http-method header is not working on batch request.
