Hi Rick,
I am trying to access a vendor's REST API. The vendor has requested that I send the post request for troubleshooting purposes. It's been a while, but I did this once using Postman on a different project. I know Websurge is the tool for this type of thing, but so far, it's very rare that I need something like this.

My question is, is there a way to see/capture the post request, headers and data, from the wwHttp object? Or, do I need Web Surge or Postman for this task?

TIA,
Steve

You can use Fiddler or another Http Proxy for capturing requests.

Make sure you use Fiddler Classic as it's free - the newer version is not.

WebSurge and Postman let you test your requests once you know what's being sent. But since you're generating the requests you should know what your sending 😄
