Request Method Transform

Last updated: Dec 19, 2022 1 minute read.

It is now possible, as of Tyk Gateway v2.2, to change the method of a request. To enable, add to your extended paths:

method_transforms: [
  {
    path: "post",
    method: "GET",
    to_method: "POST"
  }
],

Note

This feature is very simple at the moment, and only changes the type of method, it does not handle the message data of the request body. However, a combination of method transform, context variables and body transformations can be used to achieve a similar effect.

Using the Dashboard

To do this from the Dashboard, from the API Endpoint Designer select method transform from the plugins drop-down list on the endpoint you want to transform from.

Then select the path you wish to change to.
