HTTP Request using Nodered

[DSongra]

Dear Armin,

Good Morning.

Hope you are doing well.

I am working on HTTP Request application to fetch the data from Amadeus8 Software, some of the Get request working and some of the not. for cross checking request I have used Postman Software for checking the same HTTP Get Request and it is working fine with Postman Software, but in node red it is not working.

Is there any Docker Container need to be install?

Screenshots attached for your reference.

No the only thing you need is Node-RED. If the status 401 is returned, then you you not fed the http request node with valid data pretty sure.

I would do the following. Install Node-RED for windows. Then use the same Node-RED flow as you are using on netPI. But on the PC you have the advantage to install also wireshark network analyser tool. So whenever you send http request over the node, you can make a network record at the same time and you have a chance to look at the data sent by the node.

The http request node is well explained on many web sites. I am no expert for this node to be honest.

I found the following we sites explaining details about the node

Hello Armin,

I have already gone through the below links.

Well as I said, you have to analyse with Wireshark network analyer what the Node-RED http request node is sending out compared to other http request across other software. I am 100% sure the http request node is working properly, else after 6 years of Node-RED and https node anybody else would have found this problem already. I am sure it is a misconfiguration/setup issue.

But as I said I am no https request node expert. I am sorry.

Thank you for letting me know and confirms what I told you ... any possible http request can be constructed and sent via Node-RED http request node and it is just a matter of parameters
