How to implement delete api call

Currently I am implementing API calls using Servlet.

• Whenever there is a call to fetch data, I use doGet() (GET request).
• To put data I use doPost() (POST request).

Fr开发者_如何学运维om reading the references, I got the idea to use POST whenever you change the database, and GET is simply for fetching the data.

I need to implement a call to delete an item from the database. Should I implement this with POST or GET?

Yes, use doPost(..). If you are making a REST API you can consider doDelete(..)
