When building and integrating with different systems and API requirements a designer may need to make requests using a form URL encoded structure.

This article outlines how this can be achieved through the send an HTTP request action in UI Builder.

How It Works

Within your desired workflow, add a Send an HTTP Request activity. Then, follow these steps:

  1. Adjust the Content type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded :

Untitled

  1. Set the body of the request to be a string value:

Untitled

<aside> 💡

Make sure you're building URL-concatenated parameters

</aside>

Setting the Body Value

The body of a request may contain spaces and/or non-URL-friendly characters. This needs to be URL friendly, and depending on your request, the body value can quickly become complex to maintain.
