Hi everyone!

Is there any way to make a http request in Switch 12 installed on a Windows 7 machine?



I have two scenarios I would like to use an http client to solve my problem.

In first one I would use a HTTP GET as a Producer.

In second I would like to make a POST with results.



The web application is out of my control, so I can't implement a SOAP webservice.



Thank you!

The only built-in HTTP functionality in Switch 12 is GET, Javascript function s.download(). You can use an external process such as cURL to implement other HTTP operations like PUT, POST, DELETE, etc.

That's what I do and it works really well.

Thank you guys!



I didn't know s.download() function, It solves a half of my problem, so i'll have to install curl to use as an external process.



Thanks again

I use Microsofts XMLHTTP object in a Script for this all the time - mostly to retrieve graphics files from a remote service. You can implement GET, POST or SOAP with it. Works great.
