The method isn't allowed on this destination

Code: egress.method_not_allowed

The destination is allowed, but not with the request’s method.

Awake’s answer says:

the box's egress policy doesn't allow this method on this destination

Every request a box sends leaves through the Egress Proxy, outside the box, which allows only what your org’s policy names and refuses the rest. The Egress Proxy says more.

Use a method the destination allows, or ask your Awake admin to allow this one.

In the console, an Org admin opens Admin → Policies → Destinations.

Tell the person what was refused and why, with this code, and don’t retry in a loop. Don’t try another host, encoding or route to get around a control.

The Egress Proxy records each refusal, never the request’s data. Org admins and security auditors read the records in the Audit log.

Ask your Awake admin. Give them the code, egress.method_not_allowed, and when it happened.
