Configure HTTP Request Headers
This topic applies to Business Analytics 3.9 and higher.
REST, or REpresentational STate web services, are web services available via HTTP or HTTPS that use several HTTP methods to invoke service operations and pass input parameters.
See
REST Web Services for more information.
If you register a new REST Web Service in the Business Analytics Hub then you can specify HTTP Request Headers optionally.
After the Registration of a REST web wervice you can still configure the HTTP Request Headers in the Business Analytics Hub.
To configure HTTP Request Headers please proceed as follows:
1. Open the details page of the wanted REST web service in Business Analytics Hub from search results, bookmarks, favorites, or other links.
2. Select Show > Info. 3. To configure the HTTP Request Headers click the Edit button on the info page. 4. Click the + button and fill in the required Name and Value parameters. You can add one or more HTTP Request Headers as Name:Value pairs. The Name field provides a list of HTTP headers as a drop-down menu, but also allows you to type in a valid name. Depending on the selected parameter, the Value field provides a list of appropriate values as a drop-down menu or you can type in a valid value.
5. Click Save.
6. Close the info page.
