How to force POST hit and how to configure Apache server to use data via POST

General questions

Hello,

I’m considering replacing our current Analytics solution (based on Adobe Analytics) with a Matomo On-Prem solution. Before performing a POC of the various features (data collection and analysis, performance, etc.), I need to run some “technical tests.”

So, I installed and configured Matomo on a VM (based on Debian, with Apache and MariaDB) and verified that it worked correctly (by building some very simple HTML pages and inserting your JavaScript snippet).

I currently have two questions:

  1. Is it possible to force the use of the POST method (instead of the traditional GET) to send data from the browser?

  2. I imagine that using POST requires a change to the Apache configuration (for example, by enabling some Apache modules). In fact, as far as I know, data sent via POST is not logged by Apache.
    Can you help me and tell me what this change is?

Thanks in advance.
