Templates for HTTP POST Carriers

Top  Previous  Next

HTTP POST is a special protocol in that a template MUST be applied in order for this protocol to function properly.

 

In the Template sub-section of any HTTP POST carrier, enter the following in the Text portion of the Template:

 

|<name1>|<value1>|

|<name2>|<value2>|

etc.

 

Each value you specify will need to correspond to a variable that the receiving API will recognize. For example, let's say we wanted to send a message to an API that looked for to, from, subject and text as variables. We would need to format the text template as follows:

 

|to|%Pin%|

|from|%Sender%|

|subject|%Subject%|

|text|%Message%|

 

NOTE: The | symbol is called a pipe and is found on most keyboards above the backslash character, \, and is typed by pressing Shift+\.
