HTTP Post Receiver (General)

Description​

An HTTP POST Receiver handles HTTP POST calls.

Purpose of Object​

An HTTP POST Receiver recognizes HTTP POST calls at a specific URL. Each call can trigger a process instance. A start event is generated and a message with the delivered data is created. Unlike the HTTP POST Receiver (Parameter) channel, this channel can deserialize the incoming data.

Creation​

To create an HTTP POST Receiver (General) follow the steps described in the general description of Adapters

Configuration​

The dialog to configure the HTTP Get receiver channel looks like this

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.
