# Set HTTP Verb

## Contents
Overview Configuration

## Overview
You can use the Set HTTP Verb filter to explicitly set the HTTP verb in the message that is sent from the Enterprise Gateway. By default, all messages are routed onwards using the HTTP verb that the Enterprise Gateway received in the request from the client. If the message originated from a non-HTTP client (for example, JMS), the messages are routed using the HTTP POST verb.
## Configuration
Complete the following fields on the Set HTTP Verb filter screen: Name: Enter a name for the filter. HTTP Verb: Specify the HTTP verb to use in the message that is routed onwards.
