  - formData
```
reactor.core.publisher.Mono<MultiValueMap<String,String>> formData()
```
    Get the form data from the body of the request if the Content-Type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" or an empty map otherwise.
    Note: calling this method causes the request body to be read and parsed in full, and the resulting MultiValueMap is cached so that this method is safe to call more than once.
  - multipartData
```
reactor.core.publisher.Mono<MultiValueMap<String,Part>> multipartData()
```
    Get the parts of a multipart request if the Content-Type is "multipart/form-data" or an empty map otherwise.
    Note: calling this method causes the request body to be read and parsed in full, and the resulting MultiValueMap is cached so that this method is safe to call more than once.
  - exchange
```
ServerWebExchange exchange()
```
    Get the web exchange that this request is based on.
    Note: Manipulating the exchange directly (instead of using the methods provided on ServerRequest and ServerResponse) can lead to irregular results.
    
    Since:
    
    5.1
  - checkNotModified
```
default reactor.core.publisher.Mono<ServerResponse> checkNotModified(Instant lastModified)
```
    Check whether the requested resource has been modified given the supplied last-modified timestamp (as determined by the application). If not modified, this method returns a response with corresponding status code and headers, otherwise an empty result.
    Typical usage:
```
 public Mono<ServerResponse> myHandleMethod(ServerRequest request) {
   Instant lastModified = // application-specific calculation
         return request.checkNotModified(lastModified)
           .switchIfEmpty(Mono.defer(() -> {
             // further request processing, actually building content
                 return ServerResponse.ok().body(...);
           }));
 }
```
    This method works with conditional GET/HEAD requests, but also with conditional POST/PUT/DELETE requests.
    Note: you can use either this #checkNotModified(Instant) method; or checkNotModified(String). If you want enforce both a strong entity tag and a Last-Modified value, as recommended by the HTTP specification, then you should use checkNotModified(Instant, String).
    Parameters:
    
    lastModified - the last-modified timestamp that the application determined for the underlying resource
    
    Returns:
    
    a corresponding response if the request qualifies as not modified, or an empty result otherwise.
    
    Since:
    
    5.2.5
  - checkNotModified
```
default reactor.core.publisher.Mono<ServerResponse> checkNotModified(String etag)
```
    Check whether the requested resource has been modified given the supplied ETag (entity tag), as determined by the application. If not modified, this method returns a response with corresponding status code and headers, otherwise an empty result.
    Typical usage:
```
 public Mono<ServerResponse> myHandleMethod(ServerRequest request) {
   String eTag = // application-specific calculation
         return request.checkNotModified(eTag)
           .switchIfEmpty(Mono.defer(() -> {
             // further request processing, actually building content
                 return ServerResponse.ok().body(...);
           }));
 }
```
    This method works with conditional GET/HEAD requests, but also with conditional POST/PUT/DELETE requests.
    Note: you can use either this checkNotModified(Instant) method; or #checkNotModified(String). If you want enforce both a strong entity tag and a Last-Modified value, as recommended by the HTTP specification, then you should use checkNotModified(Instant, String).
    Parameters:
    
    etag - the entity tag that the application determined for the underlying resource. This parameter will be padded with quotes (") if necessary.
    
    Returns:
    
    a corresponding response if the request qualifies as not modified, or an empty result otherwise.

```
    Check whether the requested resource has been modified given the supplied ETag (entity tag) and last-modified timestamp, as determined by the application. If not modified, this method returns a response with corresponding status code and headers, otherwise an empty result.
    Typical usage:
```
 public Mono<ServerResponse> myHandleMethod(ServerRequest request) {
   Instant lastModified = // application-specific calculation
   String eTag = // application-specific calculation
         return request.checkNotModified(lastModified, eTag)
           .switchIfEmpty(Mono.defer(() -> {
             // further request processing, actually building content
                 return ServerResponse.ok().body(...);
           }));
 }
```
    This method works with conditional GET/HEAD requests, but also with conditional POST/PUT/DELETE requests.
    Parameters:
    
    lastModified - the last-modified timestamp that the application determined for the underlying resource
    
    etag - the entity tag that the application determined for the underlying resource. This parameter will be padded with quotes (") if necessary.
