Creating HTTP Target Activity
HTTP Target provides the ability to specify the file location that is accessible via HTTP. To create an HTTP target activity:
- Go to Develop > Services > Target > HTTP.
- Click Create New.
- Type the name and description of the new HTTP target activity.
- Type the HTTP URL. This is the URL of the target application to which you want to post the data. It is the combination of the File Path and File Name. For instance, if the File Path is http://www.myorganization.com/HR_Files/Employee/ and File Name is EMP_PersonalDetails.xls then HTTP URL is http://www.myorganization.com/HR_Files/Employee/EMP_PersonalDetails.xls.
- Select the post type - HTTP or HTTPS.
- Select the RFC format - RFC 1867 or RFC 1869.Â
- Expand Advanced Properties. For more information, refer to Changing Advanced Properties.
- Click Save.
Click Test to verify the HTTP target activity. This verifies the values given in the HTTP URL and Port Type fields.
