There are EXAMPLExx members in the QRPGLESRC file that will probably help you out. I'm not on the latest, so my examples won't match what you see, but you should see something similar to what you want.

It's recommended to use the latest beta version http://www.scottklement.com/httpapi/beta/ especially if you're just getting started.

There is a mailing list specifically for the software http://www.scottklement.com/mailman/listinfo/ftpapi

If you are having specific problems getting something to work, please enable debugging and send your code and log file to that list for support. (I realize you're not to that point yet.)

Subject: HTTPAPI Help

All,
I am just dipping my big toe into the world of sending a document using HTTP and have downloaded Scotts HTTPAPI programs.
Unfortunatly, there does not seem to be any documentation on how to use them.

Can someone point me to any info on how to use the various procedures?
I have a project where I need to do the following:
1) Append the destination string "/import" to the URL:
https://api.traceregister.com/import OR
https://api.traceregister.com/training/import

2) Create an HTTP Request using the modified URL, and set a header attribute named "Authorization" equal to the Import Key:

request.header["Authorization"] = ImportKey

3) Send the HTTP Request as a POST with the modified XML document contents as the Request Payload.

The XML document is in a file on the IFS.

Thanks,
