How to use Delete method in python flask

Question

How to use Delete method in python flask.My code segment has some issues and it shows Method Not Allowed while loading the url http://localhost:8082/api/users/remove_group/5.

@app.route('/api/users/remove_group/<int:groupId>',methods=['DELETE'])
def removeGroup(groupId):
try:
    print 'its working--Delete group'
    if userGroup.query.filter_by(group_id=groupId).first() is not None:
        userGroup.query.filter_by(group_id=groupId).delete()
        message='Group removed succesfully\n'
    else:
        print 'Group not found'
        message='Group not found\n'
except HTTPException as error:
    return error(os.version)
return message

HTML suports only GET/POST requests in forms, isn't it? Thus, you might try to get access to your removeGroup method with POST request that is not allowed in @app.route.

Please, see also: Should PUT and DELETE be used in forms?
