Getting a '405 Method Not Allowed' Error – What's the Fix? or Why Am I Seeing '405 Method Not Allowed

14 Replies, 1603 Views

405 method not allowed usually means the server knows the endpoint but rejects the POST method.

Quick things to try:
- Verify the endpoint in your API docs (if any) to confirm it supports POST.
- Check for typos in the URL (happens to the best of us).
- If it’s a REST API, maybe you’re hitting a GET-only route by accident?

If it’s CORS, the error would be different, but you can test with a CORS extension like "Allow CORS" in Chrome to rule it out.
