POST HTTP request with XML body

Anonymous — Thu, 15 Nov 2018 20:02:40 GMT

Hello, we are trying use the open source tool to process data from a file and invoke an API that takes XML body as payload using HTTP request.

We would like to know how we can post an xml payload in the http request body and get a response back that we can parse.

Can you please share any documentation or sample code that we could refer to?

We are trying to use tRESTClient as below. need to pass the XML payload in the body . Please suggest how to configure the tREST client component.

tRESTClient component have a schema (body/string)

you need prepare this body before call tRESTClient

instead of tREST Client, I used tREST which was more apparent for the payload. Thanks !

on your screenshots - tRESTClients not tREST

welcome 🙂

oh yes .. but I still think I might go with tRESTClient.

sorry, I can't understand you:

- you ask about tRESTClient

- my samples use it

- you are confirming you want to use tRESTClient

what wrong?

in any case - all work as described
