What is a key difference between GET and POST?

Advertisement

  • GET is used with the HTTP protocol. POST is used with HTTPS.
  • GET displays the submitted data as part of the URL. During POST, this information is not shown, as it’s encoded in the request body.
  • GET is intended for changing the server state and it carries more data than POST.
  • GET is more secure than POST and should be used for sensitive information.
