post( )


A function that responds to requests made with the HTTP POST method.

The HTTP POST method is usually called by consumers to create a new resource. If defined in this way and the resource is created, the function should respond with a 201 (Created) status code and usually a reference to the new resource.

Respond to the request by returning a WixHttpFunctionResponse object you create using one of the response(), ok(), created(), notFound(), serverError(), badRequest(), or forbidden() functions.

The post() function is not a function that you call from your code. You define the function in a file named http-functions.js in your site's Backend section. The function is called when your users make HTTP requests using the associated URLs as described below.

All POST requests with the following URL will be routed to this function:
