Extend the SQL command HTTP_DELETE and include a additional body parameter

It would be great if the SQL command HTPP_DELETE could be extended by an additional request body.

I know that this is not the standard, but in an actual project we need to pass an order number in a HTTP_DELETE statement. The problem is, that otherwise our customer does not know which order number he has to delete. So, it wold be a great enhancement for us, if we could add the order number to the HTTP_DELETE statement!

    We do not plan to extend the HTTP_DELETE function to include a non-standard option, so this Idea is being closed.

    The CAAC has reviewed this IBM Idea and recommends that IBM not implement this request.

    The CAAC already rejected this idea as IBMI-I-4431, for very sound reasons.

    Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual IBM Ideas on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your Idea.
