A GP tool was created using ArcGIS Pro, then this tool has been published on an instance of ArcGIS Server.
The GP service is available and I can see its web REST endpoint :
when the option Executing task is used either GET or POST, I get the results expected.
I was reading the documentation about the Geoprocessing service:
I based my knowledge in :
https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_httpmethods.asp
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46585/when-do-you-use-post-and-when-do-you-use-get
but I wonder, how this general definitions applied to the ESRI Services universe?
If I am planning to consume the geoprocessing tool using the REST endpoint, which one should I choose? GET or POST?
