HTTP
This guide contains information to set up a HTTP Sink in Vanus Connect.
Introduction
HTTP is a protocol for fetching resources such as HTML documents. It is the foundation of any data exchange on the Web and it is a client-server protocol, which means requests are initiated by the recipient, usually the Web browser.
Using HTTP Sink you can send an HTTP request to any application or webhook server.
