Delete (HTTP DELETE) and Update(HTTP PUT)is not allowed as mentioned in doc. 

Create(HTTP POST): I would suggest you to use it inside the endpoint on the behalf of user as you have to pass the user id as an album owner. 

POST /community/2.0/mytenantid/albums HTTP/1.1
Host: api.lithium.com
Content-Type: application/json
Cache-Control: no-cache
client-id: czY8mbW76Ac/Wz6+bAMhCm+sW5WSyhAO2odh28TB1/c=

{
    "data":{
            "type":"album",
            "title":"my favorites",
            "description":"my favorite uploads",
            "owner":{
                "id":"32"
            }
    }
}
