 ### POST and PUT
 
 POST and PUT requests both require a JSON body payload. You can pass either a Java object or a `UsergridEntity` instance. While the former works in principle, best practise is to use a `UsergridEntity` wherever practical. When an entity has a uuid or name property and already exists on the server, use a PUT request to update it. If it does not, use POST to create it.
