It supports various HTTP methods such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, and PATCH, enabling flexible interaction with the Geo proxy service. This is useful for scenarios where you need to interact with GitLab's Geo proxy for replication or synchronization tasks in a GitLab Geo setup.

Use Case Examples

  1. Using GET method to retrieve information from the Geo proxy endpoint.
  2. Using POST method to send data to the Geo proxy endpoint for synchronization.
