HTTP Get Receiver

Description​

An HTTP GET Receiver handles HTTP GET requests.

Purpose of Object​

An HTTP GET Receiver is used to recognize HTTP GET requests at a specific URL. Each call can trigger a process instance. A start event is generated and a message with a list of the child elements is created. The names of these child elements are the parameter of the HTTP GET method. The incoming message type must be structured like this.

Creation​

To create an HTTP GET receiver follow the steps described in the general description of Adapters

Configuration​

Start error process: If the channel encounters an error you can connect it in the process model with an error start event to create a process instance for handling that error.

If you leave the error hold time field as blank as the process instance will be created every time an error occurs. If errors occur rapidly, a lot of process instances will be created. You can avoid this by entering a period of time in the field. Any further errors occur within this period, no further error process instance will be created.
