HTTP Post block

NOTE:

Create a API Call Connection and use the Execute API Call block instead, if any of the following apply:

• Sensitive or secret information needs to be sent in the Data value parameter.

• The server you want to communicate with requires setting specific HTTP headers and or use authentication.

The block consists of the following (from top to bottom):

• URL: Value Parameter that accepts a text value representing the URL where you want the request to be sent.

• Data: Optional Value Parameter that accepts an object value representing the data to be sent.

• Success Tasks: a Flow Parameter where you connect blocks that specify what you want done when the operation completes successfully. The HTTP Data block can be used to access the output (if any).

• Fail Tasks: a Flow Parameter where you connect blocks that specify what you want done when the operation reports an error. The HTTP Error block can be used to access the error information.
