What is POST?

POST is an HTTP request method used by the World Wide Web. It is designed to send data to a server to create or update a resource. The data sent via POST is included in the body of the request. It is often used for submitting form data, uploading files, or any action that involves changing the server's state. Unlike GET requests, POST requests are not idempotent, meaning that making the same request multiple times might have different effects.
