HTTP.Post

Core library HTTP POST — posts a payload and returns an object with StatusCode and Response. Requires Platform.Load.

HTTP.Post sends a POST with the given content type and body. It returns an object with two fields: StatusCode (the HTTP status as a string) and Response (the response body as a string).

Syntax

var response = HTTP.Post(url, contentType, payload, headerNames, headerValues);

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
url string Yes Target URL
contentType string Yes MIME type of the request body
payload string Yes Request body string
headerNames string[] Yes Header names (pass an empty array if none are needed)
headerValues string[] Yes Values paired with headerNames (pass an empty array if none are needed)

Return value

Returns an object (not a bare string) with these fields:

Field Type Description
StatusCode string HTTP status code of the response
Response string Response body

Note that HTTP.Post uses different field names than HTTP.Get, which returns { Status, Content }.

Example

Platform.Load("core", "1.1.5");

var payload = Stringify({
    event: "form_submit",
    email: submitterEmail,
    timestamp: Platform.Function.Now()
});

var response = HTTP.Post(
    "https://api.example.com/events",
    "application/json",
    payload,
    ["X-API-Key"],
    ["mysecretkey"]
);

if (response.StatusCode == "200") {
    var result = Platform.Function.ParseJSON(String(response.Response));
}
