REST v2
Our REST v2 connector is suited for connecting with HTTP REST APIs in a more secure manner.
In order to use it, you should fill the base url with the base endpoint.
For example, if you want to connect to the endpoints https://myapi.com/some-data and https://myapi.com/some-other-data, then the base url would be https://myapi.com
You can also set connector-wide headers to be sent with all methods. Note that method headers can overwrite connector headers with the same key.
This connector can be executed from our servers or from your users browser.
- Local Request: executing from the users browser can be useful when user specific params or network settings are required such as IP address blocks. But be aware that because the request is leaving the users browser all the configured params (headers, body) are publicly accessible.
- Remote Request: executing from our servers masks user specific params or network settings such as IP addresses. On the other hand, as all requests are leaving our servers, most of the params are not publicly available, so you can configure secrets such as api keys in headers or body
The methods are used to connect to the actual endpoints in your API.
You can make GET, POST, PUT and any other HTTP method requests.
You can add route parameters with ":" before the param:
/myroute/:myRouteParam
If you use route parameters, the necessary arguments will be requested when calling the method on the frontend.
Body Parameters
If you are sending a request that needs a body, you can set a template of the body and just fill the dynamic fields. You can add body parameters with "$" inside the field:
{
"name": $name,
"age": $age
}
Header Parameters
If you are sending a request that needs a authorization or just need to pass params in the headers, you can create params inside the headers with "$" inside the field:
Authorization: Bearer $token
