I want to use the thingworx service and send the data to Power Automate but now limitation is i am unable to make GET request from Thingworx platform. Is it possible that thingworx Api can work as Get API so that i can get the data in Power Automate. Can anyone please spread light on this topic. I would like to get the data with GET HTTP method and NOT POST METHOD.

    From ThingWorx you want to send a GET/POST request to Power Automate?

    You can use ContentLoaderFunctions:

      ContentLoaderFunctions has these GET requests

      GetJSON, GetText, GetXML

       

      Sending data via get you have to do by adding the data via query string (?data=myData). Like http://<host>/?data=myData

      The format of how you send it will depend on the target system - how it expects the data.
