Hi,

I’m struggling to call the Form URL encoded rest api in AL Business Central but didn’t find any solution.

Any body can help me and share the sample code?

Thanks.

Hi @Sajjad_Yousuf,

Something like this:

    local procedure PostHttpRequest(Url: Text; Content: Text) Response: Text;
    var
        myHttpClient: HttpClient;
        myHttpResponseMessage: HttpResponseMessage;
        myHttpContent: HttpContent;
        myHttpHeaders: HttpHeaders;
    begin
        // we want to receive a JSON in utf-8 from API
        myHttpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders().Add('Accept', 'application/json');
        myHttpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders().Add('Accept-Charset', 'utf-8');

        myHttpContent.WriteFrom(Content);
        myHttpContent.GetHeaders(myHttpHeaders);
        if myHttpHeaders.Contains('Content-Type') then
            myHttpHeaders.Remove('Content-Type');
        myHttpHeaders.Add('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');

        myHttpClient.Post(Url, myHttpContent, myHttpResponseMessage);

        if not myHttpResponseMessage.Content().ReadAs(Response) or not myHttpResponseMessage.IsSuccessStatusCode() then
            ProcessError(Response); // this will depend on the response from API
    end;
