App Platform gives 400 Bad Request (cloudflare) error with PATCH requests

Posted on February 1, 2021

Hi!

My Django app running on App Platform gives 400 Bad Request errors when making PATCH requests. It does work when I change it to PUT.

I noticed cloudflare below the message. Anyone knows if Cloudflare disallows certain requests?

CloudFlare should properly pass an HTTP PATCH request. HTTP PATCH requests should have a request body, is it possible that your request is missing a body?

If you’re still having trouble, could you either post here (or contact support) the request header and body you’re using in your request.
