rest - Change a resource by deletion of existing followed by insertion of new. Still a PUT? -

i'm working on rest-like api. api have changing existing resource id:

/api/v1/admin/member/:id

i normal circumstances of course of study put when changing resource.

but because of compromise leading simpler code, route first delete resource (and references it) , create new 1 based on input given form. in means , give same end result resource change.

question: should route put or post

the expected behavior idempotent utilize put, , create sure update occurs in transaction error between deleting , inserting not leave resource deleted.
