Consuming REST API using JSON with Grails

I'm trying to consume a REST service that requires me to supply login details in JSON:

def resp = new RestBuilder().put("https://..."){        
   contentType "application/json"
   accept "application/json"
   header "X-ESA-API-Key", "ROBOT"
   json {
      type = "STANDARD_LOGIN"
      login = "username"
      password = "password"
   }
}

This results in the service responding “Method not allowed”.

However, using cURL:

$ curl --compressed \
-X POST \
-d '{"type":"STANDARD_LOGIN","login":"username","password":"password"}' \
-H 'Accept: application/json' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'X-ESA-API-Key: ROBOT' \
'https://...

I get a proper response and authentication from the service.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong in Grails or how to debug this issue?

Difference is that PUT is used in RestBuilder whereas POST in curl.

PUT "Method not allowed". Use post() instead.
