+This option specifies where to send the form's data on submission (usually an
+URI). Its value is rendered as the ``action`` attribute of the ``form``
+element. An empty value is considered a same-document reference, i.e. the form
+will be submitted to the same URI that rendered the form.

+
+method
+~~~~~~
+
+**type**: ``string`` **default**: ``POST``
+
+This option specifies the HTTP method used to submit the form's data. Its
+value is rendered as the ``method`` attribute of the ``form`` element and is
+used to decide whether to process the form submission in the
+``handleRequest()`` method after submission. Possible values are:
+
+* POST
+* GET
+* PUT
+* DELETE
+* PATCH
+
+.. note:
+
+    When the method is PUT, PATCH, or DELETE, Symfony will automatically
+    render a ``_method`` hidden field in your form. This is used to "fake"
+    these HTTP methods, as they're not supported on standard browsers. For
+    more information, see :doc:`/cookbook/routing/method_parameters`.
+
+.. note:
+
+    Only the PATCH method allows submitting partial data without that missing
+    fields are set to ``null`` in the underlying data (preserving default
+    values, if any).
