At this point I’m infamous in my company for complaining about how something should have been done with a QUERY verb but it hasn’t been approved yet.

The cases tend to look like this: - An endpoint was implemented as a GET endpoint, since it’s for getting data, with the search terms in the query parameters. The search term got too long, breaking a critical behavior in production environments. - An endpoint was implemented as a POST endpoint, despite it being an idempotent query for data, since the request body is too large to fit in query parameters. New employees repeatedly come in and are confused why it’s not a GET endpoint, or why it doesn’t modify anything.
