OAuth request types are implemented as enumerated constants, each representing a standard HTTP method. These constants provide a clear and structured approach to defining request types, ensuring consistency and reducing ambiguity in OAuth-related API interactions.
The request types include commonly used HTTP methods such as DELETE, GET, POST, and PUT, which handle resource deletion, retrieval, creation, and updates, respectively. Additional methods like HEAD and OPTIONS are used for metadata retrieval and discovering supported operations, while PATCH allows partial updates to resources. TRACE serves diagnostic purposes by echoing the received request.
