Further information
1. This function corresponds to the httpput function of the mmhttp module and works in a similar way.
2. The outgoing HTTP request will be automatically augmented with the appropriate credentials for this type of dmpresource.
3. In event of an unexpected failure, the request will be retried the number of times specified by dmp_max_retries if it returned a HTTP status code listed in dmp_retry_error_codes.
4. If this function returns an unexpected HTTP status code, you should check the status attribute of the dmpresource to see whether this was returned from the HTTP webservice or was the result of an error obtaining credentials.
