Getting a status code 405 - What's the best way to handle 'Method Not Allowed' errors? or Why am I se

Hey! I ran into this exact issue last week. The status code 405 usually means the server knows your request method (like POST) but won’t allow it for that specific endpoint.

Check the API docs—sometimes it’s as simple as using GET instead of POST.

If you’re using curl or Postman, try adding `-v` or enabling verbose mode to see the allowed methods in the response headers.

Also, some APIs are weirdly strict—maybe you’re missing a header or auth token?
