Command Tab

This tab of the HTTP action specifies the HTTP request information.

Put: The put command to perform (None, Put file, Post file, Post form data, or Delete). For the Post form data command, enter the form information on the Form tab.

Get: The get command to perform (Get to file, Get to macro, or None).

URL: The URL on the server to submit the request to (required). Do not include the protocol or domain name (i.e., http://www.site.com), but only the local resource URL itself (i.e., /path/to/file.html).

Put file: For Put file or Post file commands, the name of the file to put (required).

Get file: For the Get to file command, the name of the local file to get to (required).

Macro: For the Get to macro command, the name of a temporary macro to store the response in (required).

Do not escape special characters: Does not escape (double) special characters in the response when storing in a macro.

Transfer type: The transfer mode:

•	Binary: the resource data is copied to the local system exactly as it is stored on the server.

•

ASCII: If the resource being downloaded from the server is textual, the data is automatically converted so that the end of line character sequence is compatible with the Windows platform. Individual carriage return or linefeed characters are converted to carriage return/linefeed character sequences.

Form data: For the Post form data command, enter the form data to be posted; for the Post file command, enter the name of the form field that the script expects (if empty, a default field name of "File1" is used).

Logging: Level of logging to perform on network communications or file transfers:

•	None: No logging (other than a count of files transferred)

•	All: All network communications logged

•	Errors: Only errors logged

•	Errors/warnings: Any errors and warnings logged

•	All + Hex dump: Logs all networks communications and a hex dump of all data transferred

•	Progress: Logs progress while transferring file

•	Data: Logs data that is returned by the server

Log every x percent: If Logging is set to Progress and a value between 1 and 99 is entered in this field, a progress update will be logged every n percent of completion when transferring a file. If the field is empty or file sizes are not available, a progress update will be logged every 5 seconds.

Note: The HTTP action will create the destination folder for a local file if it doesn't already exist.
