title: PUT request not updating JSON when using a GET request, though it says it's successful?
body: <p>(FYI, I'm using Jsonbin.io) <br>
  I have this code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>// #1
  var req2 = new XMLHttpRequest();
  req2.onreadystatechange = () =&gt; {
    if (req2.readyState == XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
      alert(req2.responseText);
    } 
  };
  
  req2.open("GET", "https://api.jsonbin.io/b/5ed1530b79382f568bcf5662", true);
  req2.setRequestHeader("secret-key", "ProbablyNoProblemInTheAPIkey");
  req2.send();
  
  // #2
  
  let req = new XMLHttpRequest();
  
  req.onreadystatechange = () =&gt; {
    if (req.readyState == XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
    alert(req.responseText);
    }
  };
  
  req.open("PUT", "https://api.jsonbin.io/b/5ed1530b79382f568bcf5662", true);
  
  req.setRequestHeader("secret-key", "ProbablyNoProblemInTheAPIkey");
  req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
  req.send('{"Sample": "Hello World"}');
  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is an example of my code functioning:</p>
  
  <p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false">
  <div class="snippet-code">
  <pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;script language="javascript"&gt;

  <p>The PUT request is supposedly successful, but when making a GET request to access the updated version, the JSON seems the same. What is going wrong?<br>
  It seems like the PUT request was done successfully, as req.status was 200, so I don't think you should focus on that.</p>
