In the context of RESTful APIs, the POST method is used to create a new resource on the server.
When interacting with the HPE OneView REST API, you use the POST method to create new
resources such as server profiles, networks, or volumes. This method sends data to the server to
create a new subordinate of the resource identified by the URI.
GET is used to retrieve information about resources.
PUT is typically used to update or replace an existing resource.
DELETE is used to remove a resource.
