HTTP post expecting 204 No Content response

Hello,

Just upgraded to 8.6 (from 7.6) to see if the HTTP "Post form data" would be able to pass the 204 "no content" response.

It fails with : Error posting data: The specified operation has timed out (No Content)

The API I'm sending to will reply with a 401 or 204.

Using Fiddler to verify I'm getting a response, I do get the 204 response.

Any ideas or thoughts?

Thank you.

When I increase the Timeout from 2 to 20 seconds (Server tab), the step succeeds after about 8 seconds, and the roomlist macro contains the server response of

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

Due to the posting giving out my OAuth token, I had a page setup that only returned the 204 and I saw the same behavior at the short interval.

The actual API I am using, after setting the timeout to 90 seconds, it fails with an unspecified error, and no hex dump.

Code:

I'll send emails to support to prevent my OAuth token from being publicly posted.

This has been fixed in the latest build (VisBuildAct.dll 8.7.0.3 in Help | About after downloading and installing).
