HTTP OPTIONS and GET / POST / PUT methods

[#1]

Hi,

I have few queries.

1. I guess every HTTP request made up of 2 request. options and followed by methods.

2. Do we really need to send OPTION Request. Is that mandatory ?

3. Is it possible to merge both OPTION and followed by Methods into single call so that APIGEE receives nearly half of the request .

4. Are you charging for a single request or you're charging for OPTION too ? What's the significant of it.

Thanks,

Raja K
