Send a Form-URL-Encoded REST Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.FullRequestFormUrlEncoded, which sends an application/x-www-form-urlencoded request. The body is built from the query parameters added to the object, and the response body is returned as text.

integer li_rc
integer li_Success
oleobject loo_Rest
integer li_BTls
integer li_BAutoReconnect
string ls_ResponseText

li_Success = 0

loo_Rest = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Rest.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Rest")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Rest
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if
li_BTls = 1
li_BAutoReconnect = 1
li_Success = loo_Rest.Connect("example.com",443,li_BTls,li_BAutoReconnect)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Rest.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Rest
    return
end if

//  The application/x-www-form-urlencoded body is built from the query parameters added to the object.
loo_Rest.AddQueryParam("username","alice")
loo_Rest.AddQueryParam("action","login")

//  Send the form-url-encoded request.  The parameters become the request body rather than the URL
//  query string.

    Write-Debug loo_Rest.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Rest
