HTTP Request Node

Method, URL, headers, and body fields for calling an HTTP endpoint.

Makes an HTTP request to an outside service for data. It’s a Form Node preconfigured with the fields an HTTP call needs.

Fields

• Method , a colored dropdown merged into the URL row: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, QUERY.
• URL , a template field, e.g. https://${string.host}/api. Can never be removed.
• Headers , optional. Add via the ⋯ menu → Add Header; each is a key/value template pair. A value that looks like JSON gets auto-detected on blur and a "" format button appears.
• Body / Content-Type , optional, added together via ⋯ → Add Body. Content-Type is a dropdown: application/json, text/plain, application/x-www-form-urlencoded, text/xml, application/octet-stream.

All of Method/URL/Headers/Body’s template placeholders flow into one combined set of input ports on the node , see Template Syntax Reference.

Output

The response lands on a persistent data output port , unlike a one-shot flash, this port holds a steady pulse while it has a value, since it’s meant to be read after the run rather than caught in the instant it changes. Feed it into a Get JSON Value Node to pull out a specific field.
