Q7. Whether can use GET request instead of POST to create a resource?
The best practices says NO. But developer with of knowledge are doing in the industry.
Q8. What is the difference between PUT and POST?
Usually, PUT http method used when you update a resource. For example, if know that an article resides at http://mysoftkey.com/top/23, can PUT a new resource representation of this topic through a PUT on this URL. If do not know the actual resource location for instance, then add a new topic, use POST.
PUT is idempotent, while POST is not. It means if use PUT an object twice, it has no effect.
