How to send a PATCH request using Curl?
To send a PATCH request using Curl, you need to 1) tell Curl to send a PATCH request by specifying the -X PATCH command line parameter, 2) pass the PATCH data with the -d command line parameter, and 3) provide the correct ContentType HTTP header with the -H command line parameter. The -X PATCH command line parameter tells Curl to use the HTTP PATCH method instead of POST.
