+<PRE>Hi,
+I have a rest handler that accepts POST and PUT requests with
+&#8220;application/json&#8221; content type.
+
+I have content_types_accepted function defined as follows:
+
+content_types_accepted(Req, State) -&gt;
+ {[{&#8216;application/json', from_json}], Req, State}.
+
+
+The problem I have is within a request that has two headers:
+
+*Content-type*: application/json
+*Accept*: application/json
+
+With this combination I receive *406*.
+
+You can repeat it with test:
+
+http_SUITE.erl:
+1072 rest_postonly(Config) -&gt;
+1073 Client = ?config(client, Config),
+1074 Headers = [
+1075 {&lt;&lt;&quot;content-type&quot;&gt;&gt;, &lt;&lt;&quot;text/plain&quot;&gt;&gt;},
+1076 {&lt;&lt;&quot;accept&quot;&gt;&gt;, &lt;&lt;&quot;text/plain&quot;&gt;&gt;}
+1077 ],
+1078 {ok, Client2} = cowboy_client:request(&lt;&lt;&quot;POST&quot;&gt;&gt;,
+1079 build_url(&quot;/postonly&quot;, Config), Headers, &quot;12345&quot;, Client),
+1080 {ok, 204, _, _} = cowboy_client:response(Client2).
+
+My solution to that was to add a content_types_provided function:
+
+content_types_provided(Req, State) -&gt;
+ ContentTypes = [{{&lt;&lt;&quot;application&quot;&gt;&gt;, &lt;&lt;&quot;json&quot;&gt;&gt;, '*'}, to_json}],
+ {ContentTypes, Req, State}.
+
+
+But it is useless as *to_json* callback registered is not called anyhow.
+
+Adding *content_types_provided* function is a correct solution in this case?
+Or I am missing something here?
+&#8220;Accept&#8221; header is not relevant only in case of GET requests?
+
+Thank for help,
+&#321;ukasz Biedrycki
