I am writing a servlet plugin to provide a REST API endpoint, but I am unable to use PUT or DELETE requests as they are marked as unsafe methods in the web.xml. I was wondering what was the recommended way of enabling these methods for my servlet plugin without changing this setting globally?...

We are using the Send HTTP Request Plugin when we are requesting REST resources through an external API from our process models; However, we are also attempting to build a REST API that outside applications may call, which is where we are looking to enable PUT and DELETE requests being received by our servlet plugin. Currently PUT/DELETE requests being received by Appian are being blocked and are not being forwarded on to the custom servlet plugin. I was hoping there would be a way to change this behavior only the url where we have the custom plugin mounted instead of all of Appian.
