PATCH is allowed as a method, succeeds but doesn't do anything

I tried using the PATCH method to update fields on the user model, i.e.

PATCH /api/auth/me HTTP1.1

{
  "email": "[e-mail]"
}

The response to this query is then the user object with HTTP status 200 but nothing has changed, i.e. a subsequent GET request returns the old value for email.

Either PATCH should immediately return 405 or (preferably) it should actually persist the values you pass.

Alright, thanks for the input. I’ll look into the issue in more depth this friday.

This ticket received last input more than a year ago and it is very likely that the problem was already solved.
