Add a way to handle apis that return the id directly not in a JSON

[landorg]

Hi,

I got an API that I'd want to handle with this provider that returns the id directly like that:

[I] ➜ curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.example.org/v1/something \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $dc_token" \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{ "some": "thing" }'

I think this is currently not possible to handle.

Hi, @landorg - you are correct. Unfortunately this is not possible with the provider as it exists today because the expectation is that some form of write operation will return the whole object (create or update) so internal data structures can be updated.

By chance, would this API support an immediate GET after the creation like so?

curl https://api.example.org/v1/something/1f9a92b4-f3c1-4dcb-a44c-87ab708b24d2

If so... a feature enhancement may be possible to help avoid this issue. I have come across another API that operates this way, so it may be a worthwhile addition.

Hi and thanks for your quick reply :) Yes an immediate get is possible with that api.
