Should my API use GET or POST when a student starts a thread?
Faculty
Use POST because starting a thread creates a new record. Use GET to read threads.

What should the server return when the thread is created?
Faculty
Return 201 Created. Include the thread ID or URL so the client can open the new discussion.
