Hello,

being beginner in IT and ERPNext, just wanted to know after creating GET request (eg : > @frappe.whitelist(allow_guest=True)

def get_item(item=None):
if item:
# Item = frappe.db.get_value(‘Item’, item, [‘name’, ‘owner’])
Item = frappe.db.get_value(‘Item’, item, ‘name’)
else:
Item = frappe.db.get_all(‘Item’, fields=[‘*’])

return Item

i’m getting the data but using the same endpoint for POST request, still getting the data… so my query here : IS THERE ANY METHOD/PERMISSION mechanism WHERE I CAN RESTRICT and not getting data while using POST API endpoint in postman

Hi, @Rajesh_Sukheja
Yes you can restrict the access for only GET method.

@frappe.whitelist(allow_guest=True, request_method="GET")
def get_item(item=None):
    if item:
        Item = frappe.db.get_value('Item', item, 'name')
    else:
        Item = frappe.db.get_all('Item', fields=['*'])

    return Item

Hope this will help you out.

Thank you.

Hi, @Rajesh_Sukheja

The requested argument is not valid, So the below code might give you a solution.

@frappe.whitelist(allow_guest=True)
def get_item(item=None, request_method="GET"):
    if item:
        Item = frappe.db.get_value('Item', item, 'name')
    else:
        Item = frappe.db.get_all('Item', fields=['*'])

    return Item

Hope this will help you out.

Thank you
