Is there a way to access response headers from a GetJSON() call in a service?

[SteveAshley]

I'm working with an external service where I request a csrf token via request header and the service returns the token in the response headers.  I can't see how to access the response headers in my Thing service.

For example, here's the call to GetJSON:

var params = {

    headers: {'x-csrf-token' : 'fetch'} /* JSON */,

	ignoreSSLErrors: true /* BOOLEAN */,
	url: me.baseURL /* STRING */,
	password: me.password /* STRING */,
	username: me.userId /* STRING */

};

// result: JSON

var result = Resources["ContentLoaderFunctions"].GetJSON(params);

I can see my request headers in the output if I logger.warn(JSON.stringify(result)); (i.e.  {"headers":{"x-csrf-token":"fetch"}) but when I execute the same GET from POSTMAN and look at the response headers, I see the other system's returned value for x-csrf-token.

Is there a way to access the response headers in a service?

Thanks,

Steve Ashley

Hi Steve,

I don't know if that's the reason, but it's not the same doing a request with POSTMAN and with TW, as POSTMAN automatically adds requests headers which can affect to response headers.

Hi Steve,

I believe there is no such possibility OOTB now (but I can be wrong). The easiest way to achieve that is to create a very simple extension in Java with generic service to send HTTP requests. Then you can do pretty much anything with response. This is the most clean and straightforward solution.
