RestHeart API的POST方法

Question

We know that RESTHEART API can provide data using GET method. But if the list of paramaters grows then GET Rest call will hit the limit. Please confirm if we can use POST calls to fetch data via rest heart.

something like GET /test/coll?filter={'title':{ << 1000s.. params >>}}

Here I am just illustrating the long list of parameters using << 1000 params >>

RESTHeart strictly follows the HTTP protocol and the RESTful paradigm:

According to the RFC 261

POST

The POST method is used to request that the origin server accept the
entity enclosed in the request as a new subordinate of the resource
identified by the Request-URI in the Request-Line.

We have discussed between the community about allowing to GET data with a POST but rejected it.

Said that, your need is clear but it can be addressed with a RESTHeart custom Application Logic Handler.
