HTTP Server Configuration

Overall HTTP Server settings are available in the global configuration of HTTP Server plugin. To access this configuration:

• Expand Drivers/Plugins ( ) node in the System Tree.

• Double-click HTTP Server plugin ().

HTTP Server Configuration table comprises following fields:

The table stores expressions for request handling and their corresponding URIs. The order of records in the table matters. If the URI of the request matches multiple expressions, the first expression is used.

This parameter allows HTTP Server to find an expression for request handling. URI should not include host name, port or query string. It can not be an empty string or /. If URI ends with * symbol, then URI from request can be ended with any suffix instead *. Other wildcards are not supported.

Example: possible variants of the URI: /req or req correspond to a request of the following type http://localhost:8080/req?<request>

This expression provides the ability to handle the request. Request and response parameters are presented as fields of the default data table. Full list of supported parameters can be found here.

Example: setting "test" value for response body parameter: set(dt(), "responseBody", 0, "test")

For more complicated cases and step-by-step processing of requests, it is better to use models and their rule sets: {users.admin.models.model:request(dt())} See more in examples.

Enabled parameters will be available in the expression through the default data table. Disabling unused parameters can increase the speed of processing a request. All parameters are enabled by default.

The user whose rights are used to evaluate the expression. Please, be careful when selecting a user for this setting. The combination of user permissions and the proper request handling helps to avoid unwanted access to sensitive information. In some cases, it may be useful to create an individual user specifically for request handling.
