Public bug reported:

When POST to dataValueSets resource of the web-api is made, it returns a
405 (Method not allowed status) if the content-type is not set as
application/xml. The headers also returns Allowed: GET. This is
confusing the client because although POST is allowed and requires a
content-type of application/xml, the response status code is for "Method
not allowed".

Ideally in such cases, the response status should be 415 (Unsupported
media type) and should say Allowed: GET, POST. This might be considered
as an enhancement or bug
