Add Endpoint to Serverless CLI Generated Function - aws-lambda

Question

I am new to Serverless (www.serverless.com) and learning the CLI.
I am having trouble creating a POST, PUT, or DELETE endpoint for a function. In looking at the documentation, I used the following to create a function:
sls function create mycomponent/myfunction
This worked great, and the resulting s-function.json has a 'GET' endpoint automatically added. What I would like is to be able to add 'PUT', 'POST', or 'DELETE' endpoints on some functions.
It looks like from documentation that I could use endpoint deploy, but I attempted this and it did not work:
sls endpoint deploy mycomponent/myfunction#myfunction/create~POST
This errors out saying that no such endpoint name exists (I assume because it isn't in the s-function.json file).
Do I need to hand-code the s-function.json file to include the other endpoints, or is there a way to do this through the CLI?
Thanks for your help!

I've just taken to updating the s-function.json file to set the method of an "sls" function/endpoint.
Same goes for setting specific statusCode, requestTemplates, and so on.
Here's an example of a POST function/endpoint s-function.json config file.
{
"name": "create",
"handler": "user/create/handler.handler",
"timeout": 3,
"memorySize": 128,
"custom": {
"excludePatterns": [],
"envVars": []
},
"endpoints": [
{
"path": "user/create",
"method": "POST",
"type": "AWS",
"authorizationType": "none",
"apiKeyRequired": false,
"requestParameters": {},
"requestTemplates": "$${apiRequestTemplate}",
"responses": {
"400": {
"statusCode": "400"
},
"default": {
"statusCode": "201",
"responseParameters": {},
"responseModels": {},
"responseTemplates": {
"application/json": ""
}
}
}
}
]
}
