Http Nodes

HTTP client enables sending HTTP/HTTPS requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) with configurable headers, authentication, and response handling. Use these nodes to configure and send HTTP requests.

Config Nodes​

http client config​

Handles settings for http client.

Inputs

  • Request Through : Request via url or by providing hostname, port and other details
  • URL : Specifies the target URL for the HTTP request, supporting various methods like GET and POST.
  • Host : Defines the target server's hostname for the HTTP request, used to establish the connection.
  • Port : Specifies the port number for the HTTP connection, typically 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS.
  • Path : Defines the URI path for the HTTP request, typically specifying the endpoint for API interactions.
  • Query : Specifies query parameters in the URL for the HTTP request, typically used for passing dynamic data or filters.
  • TLS protocol version : Defines the TLS protocol version used for secure communication, with options to select from any supported version, TLS 1.2, TLS 1.3, or maximum supported.
  • Authentication type : Specifies the authentication method for HTTP requests, with options for 'none', 'basic', or 'digest'.
  • User name : Defines the username for HTTP authentication, used in basic or digest auth.
  • Password : Defines the password for HTTP authentication, used in basic or digest auth.
  • HTTP method : Specifies the HTTP method to be used for the request. Options include common HTTP methods such as GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, and others.
  • Transport type : Defines the transport protocol used for communication. Options include TCP, SSL, and an unknown transport type.
  • Timeout : Defines the timeout duration in milliseconds for HTTP requests, determining how long the system waits before aborting a connection attempt.
  • Max redirection count : Specifies the maximum number of HTTP redirections that the client will follow before giving up.
  • Max authorization retries : Specifies the maximum number of retry attempts for authorization failures before the client gives up. Useful for handling intermittent authentication errors.
  • Disable auto redirect : Controls whether automatic redirection is disabled. If set to true, the client will not automatically follow HTTP redirects; if false, redirection will be handled automatically.
  • Is async : Specifies whether the HTTP request is asynchronous.

Proc Nodes​

http request​

Sends http request over the network interface.

Inputs

  • URL : Specifies the URL for the HTTP request. If left empty, the URL must be set dynamically during runtime. It defines the endpoint for GET, POST, or other HTTP methods.
  • Method : Defines the HTTP method used for the request. Choose between 'GET' to retrieve data, or 'POST' to send data. These are the most commonly used HTTP methods.
  • Content Type : Defines the HTTP method used for the request. Choose between 'GET' to retrieve data, or 'POST' to send data. These are the most commonly used HTTP methods.
  • Body : Contains the data to be sent in the body of a POST request. This is used when you are submitting data, such as JSON or form data, as part of the request. The content type should be set accordingly in the 'Content Type' field.
  • Allow Auto-Redirection : Determines whether the HTTP client should automatically follow redirections (HTTP status codes 3xx). If set to true, redirections are automatically handled. If false, you must manually handle the redirection logic.
  • Response Buffer Length : Specifies the maximum length (in bytes) of the response buffer. This buffer holds the data received from the HTTP server. Adjust this value based on the expected size of the response content to avoid memory issues.
  • Add headers : Enables or disables the addition of custom headers to the HTTP request. When enabled, custom headers can be set using additional configuration options. Use this for advanced use cases where you need to include specific headers in the request.
  • Headers (json format) : Provide custom headers in JSON format. This option becomes visible when the 'Add Headers' option is enabled. Define headers like 'Content-Type', 'Authorization', etc., as key-value pairs within the JSON object. Example: {"Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": "Bearer <token>"}
