Hello. I'm somewhat new to the back end. Interested in this question.
I read that post request differs from put request in that put does not have a body.
But if I edit the message and update it to the server, then it will have a body and I should do it semantically using put.
In general, do I understand correctly that the body allows the put, or not?
Thank you.

POST differs from PUT only in one sense. PUT is for updating the state of a resource, and POST is for creating a new resource. Mechanically, there are no other differences.
