405 Method Not Allowed

[Salima Begum]

Hi, 

I am new to Django rest framework. In my project I have written api view for phone OTP verification there If I use api_view(['POST']) method it is raised an error. 

```

@api_view(['POST'])
@permission_classes([AllowAny])
@renderer_classes([TemplateHTMLRenderer, JSONRenderer])
def phone_otp_verify(request, id):
    Qurycustomer = customer.objects.get(id=id)
    OTP = Qurycustomer.phone_OTP
    if request.method == 'POST':
        security_1 = request.POST['security_1']
        security_2 = request.POST['security_2']
        security_3 = request.POST['security_3']
        security_4 = request.POST['security_4']
        security_5 = request.POST['security_5']
        OTP_entered = str(security_1) + str(security_2) + str(security_3) + str(security_4) + str(security_5)
        OTP_en = int(OTP_entered)
        if OTP == OTP_en:
            Qurycustomer.cust_status = 1
            Qurycustomer.phone_verify = 1
            Qurycustomer.phone_OTP = 00000
            Qurycustomer.os_name = osname
            Qurycustomer.browser = webname
            Qurycustomer.ip_address = ip_address
            Qurycustomer.history.change_by_reason = "Phone number verified"
            Qurycustomer.save()
            return redirect('/home')
    return render(request, 'phone_otp_verify.html')

```

If I open this url(http://127.0.0.1:8000/phone-otp-verify/17) I am getting error "405 Method Not Allowed" From above code If I mute "@api_view(['POST'])" this line of code I am not getting any error How can I achieve this Please help me out.

By default browsers makes GET requests. So you need to use some other Clients such as postman to test your api.

@api_view(['POST']) --> it means allow only post method

Replace above with @api_view(['GET', 'POST'])  if it need to allow get method as well
