HTTP Request Method: OPTIONS
The OPTIONS method requests information about the communication options available for the target resource, at either the origin server or an intervening intermediary. This method allows a client to determine the options and/or requirements associated with a resource, or the capabilities of a server, without implying a resource action. (RFC 7231: Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Semantics and Content)
