omdbapi/OMDb-API

Is it possible to use other methods in this API?

I'm studying Rest API, but I haven't seen documentation examples to do a POST, PUT, PATCH or DELETE.
In general we only consume API data or would there be any so I can test the other methods?

In this API case, you can only GET data.

The other methods don't make sense in the context of the API.
Users should not be able to do this:

POST: Add a movie
PUT: Change multiple fields in a movie, like year and title
PATCH: Change 1 field, like just the genre of a movie
DELETE: Remove a movie from OMDB

If you want to practice manipulating data through REST, you'll need to set up your own server, which could just be localhost.
