Protocols for performing HTTP generic queries

Solved2.14K views18th July 2023HTTP http proxy protocols

Paulo Henriques [SLC] [DevOps Member]550 6th May 2021 0 Comments

Hi everyone,

Besides the protocols 'Generic HTTP Query' and 'Generic Network Services Monitor', are there any others that we can use to execute HTTP requests, such as GET, POST, PUT, etc.?

If for some of the HTTP requests we need to send them via a proxy, is there any driver where we can do that?

Thanks.

I don't believe there are other generic protocols.
For testing commands we typically recommend postman, which allows composing GET, POST, PUT  HTTP requests.

I would refer to the proxyServer / proxyUser / proxyPassword attribute in the HTTP.Session protocol xml code.

Hi all,

Looking into the .Net configuration doc, I found this :

Proxy Configuration - .NET Framework | Microsoft Docs

It seems possible to tell .Net to use an HTTP proxy to execute HTTP requests.

A usage by BB ==> Configure .NET framework to use a web proxy (blackberry.com)

It's also mentioned that if the configuration is set to "<proxy usesystemdefault="true" />" , Internet Explorer parameter are used.

Configuration seems ok on C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Config\web.config file

(don't know if it's the right file).

Anyway, it seems that the configuration of the IE proxy parameters don't affect the HTTP request sent by Dataminer.

Any idea on how to tell .Net Framework (and Dataminer application) to use a proxy for all the HTTP requests?

regards,

Julien

Hi Hamid,

As Jeroen mentioned, technically is possible to use a proxy server in the http requests, however, the way the Generic HTTP Query protocol is implemented it does not support the use of proxies. Note this is not a simple change you can do, for that purpose a new driver feature would have to requested.
