Issue
The firebase doc sys this is how it is supposed to be done:
curl -X PATCH -d '{"last":"Jones"}' \ 'https://[PROJECT_ID].firebaseio.com/users/jack/name/.json'
But I dont know how to convert this to a rest based request.
TO be clear I need to send a web request from javascript/java, hence I want to know what should be the body , and header and operation type for this request.
Can someone please help?
Solution
If you use the documentation for curl, you can figure out what that command line you showed is trying to tell you.
The HTTP method is: PATCH
The request body is: {"last":"Jones"}
The url is: https://[PROJECT_ID].firebaseio.com/users/jack/name/.json
Where PROJECT_ID is the name of your project. That's all there is to it.
