+## Updating values

+The state of the boolean `state->open` and `state->message` property can be modified via `/state/{open,message}`:
+
+```shell

+curl -X PUT -u user:password -d "Nur mit Passierschein A38 :3" http://localhost:8080/state/message
+```
+
+As `state->message` is optional, its value can be deleted by using the `PUT` method with an empty payload, or by using `DELETE`:
+
+```shell
+curl -X PUT -u user:password -d "" http://localhost:8080/state/message
+# OR
+curl -X DELETE -u user:password http://localhost:8080/state/message
