requests Action

Sends concurrent requests. Can be configured either by an inline JSON template or by referencing a JSON template in the src attribute.

The result of executing the template, whether given inline or referenced, must be a JSON object with the a property for each request ID with a JSON object like defined for the request action as its value.

Example: requests with inline JSON

<requests>
{
  "main":{
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"GET",
     …
   },
  "foo":{
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"POST",
     …
  },
  "bar":{
     …
  }
}
</requests>

Note: An id property in the JSON request configuration will be ignored:

{
  "myID":{
     "id":"ignored",
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"GET",
     …
   },
   …
}

Example: requests with referenced resource

<requests src="requests.json"/>

with requests.json:

{
  "main":{
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"GET",
     …
   },
  "foo":{
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"POST",
     …
  },
  "bar":{
     …
  }
}

Example: requests with variable

<template out="$requests">
{
  "main":{
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"GET",
     …
   },
  "foo":{
     "url":"http://example.com",
     "method":"POST",
     …
  },
  "bar":{
     …
  }
}
</template>
<requests src="$requests"/>
