images, CSS and JavaScript files. See "HTTP Server Input plugin preferences 2" on

page816.

Task properties

General Tab

HTTP action: Enter the name of the action requested of PlanetPress Workflow by the

client. This name corresponds to the URL that the client will be accessing. For example, if

you enter "MakePDF" here, you could trigger the process by accessing

http://127.0.0.1:8080/MakePDF . This is also what your HTML Form's action should be.

MIME Type: Select the MIME type of the file that will be returned by the plugin.

Loop each attachment as a data file: When receiving attachments through a POST

request (HTML Form), this option will make the HTTP Server Input task loop through

each attachment. Each data file is an XML with the accompanied file.

Do not include XML envelope: Only active when the previous Loop option is

checked. When checked, the XML file containing the request data will not be

available. Only the attachment itself is sent as a data file.

Respond on error: Not used in PlanetPress Workflow version 2019.2 (see "Known

Issues" on page25).

Send immediate response to client: Do not wait for the process to finish and send a

static HTML or Text file back to the client instead. This prevents any timeout from

occurring. When checking this option, the field under the option is used to select which

file to return.

Use custom HTTP server response code: When the process ends and a response is

sent to the requesting client, a custom response code can be specified depending on how

the process goes. While in previous versions the "200 OK" code was always used, this

option overrides it to, for example, "404 Not Found" or "401 Unauthorized".

Variable containing the response code: The contents of the job information or

local variable selected in this drop-down, presumed to be a valid response code,

will be returned in the response header. This is the value that is present at the end

of the process, not the beginning.
