Output Connection Points

The grid contains a list of output connection points, by default this will be out and error.

Output Record

An HTTP Node has two output connection points out and error. An HTTP Node is triggered for each input record and will generate one output record which will be sent on either the out or error output. 

The resulting record contains the attributes specified by the output connection point, successful records are passed down the out connection point and records containing an error are passed down the error connection point. The stricture of the records by default is as follows:

1. body: The content returned by a successful request. For example, JSON content.

2. contentType: The type of response provided by the target HTTP request. For example, application/json; charset=utf-8.

3. status: the returned status code. For example, 200.

4. status message: the returns status message. For example, OK.

Headers

Are typically used to specify information for the request such as character sets, session tokens or passwords. Headers can make use of the Secret Key Details see below. For more information see HTTP Header. 

For example,

• Name: Content-Type
• Value:  text/xml; charset=UTF-8

See HTTP Action Configuration for an example.
