Standard HTTP - Request Method — Wiresk Documentation

You can include between 1 and 255 Methods to build complex Flows.

HTTP REQUEST Copy Link

Send a JSON request Copy Link

Configuration Table:

Input: Allows dynamic inputs, e.g., from a Trigger or from Step responses. Input tab>uncheck “Show recommended” to see all fields).
Default Value: Select value from a defined list or specify a fixed attribute.
Manual input: Set a custom value by using the Lightning Bold feature (⚡ icon).

(*) required field

Name*	Send a JSON request
Connection*	Select your connection or create one.

MAP FIELDS

URL*

The API endpoint URL. You can use static text or dynamic mapping using @.

Method*

Choose the HTTP method:

GET
POST
PUT
PATCH
DELETE
HEAD
OPTIONS

Header*

Define custom HTTP headers such as Content-Type or Authorization.

Add one or more header fields. Each field includes a Key and a Value (e.g., Content-Type → application/json).

Query Parameters*

Add parameters that are appended to the URL, such as ?status=active.

Add key-value pairs that appear in the query string (e.g., status → active results in ?status=active).

Body*

Define the JSON body payload for POST, PUT, or PATCH requests.

Add one or more key-value pairs to build the JSON request body. This section supports defining Key Type for structured data. Refer to Key Type list below.

Key Type in Body Fields Copy Link

Only the Body section supports Key Type selection. This allows you to control how the data is formatted in the JSON request.

Key Type	Description
Text	Sends the value as a string. Example: `"name": "Compost"`.
Number	Sends numeric values. Example: `"quantity": 10`.
True or False	Sends boolean values. Example: `"available": true`.
Set of key-value pairs	Sends nested JSON objects. Example: `"details": { "sku": "C001", "type": "organic" }`.
List of values	Sends arrays. Example: `"tags": ["compost", "organic"]`.
Null	Sends null as the value. Example: `"discount": null`.

Example Configuration Copy Link

Goal: Send product data to an external inventory API.

Field	Example
URL	`https://inventory.example.com/api/v1/products`
Method	`POST`
Headers	`Content-Type: application/json`
Body	`{ "sku": "C001", "name": "Compost", "quantity": 10 }`

When executed, Wiresk sends:

POST https://inventory.example.com/api/v1/products
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "sku": "C001",
  "name": "Compost",
  "quantity": 10
}

Typical Use Cases Copy Link

Send JSON data to external systems (CRMs, ERPs, or internal APIs).
Create, update, or delete records in third-party platforms.
Test and validate custom API endpoints.
Trigger webhooks or downstream services from a Flow.

Test and automate your Flow Copy Link

Once your Flow is configured, you can test or automate it using the Run panel or by managing Triggers from the Flow Management screen.

Run Flow: Manually runs the Flow once using sample data. Ideal for testing logic and field mapping. See How to Run a Flow.
Run Scheduler: Force-runs the Trigger immediately using live input. This bypasses the recurrence rule and is useful for verifying real data mapping. Learn more in Wiresk Scheduler – The Fundamentals.

From the Trigger management panel (clock icon), you can:

Activate or deactivate Triggers
Force-run the scheduler
Copy Routing Keys (for HTTP Triggers)

If your Flow uses a Webhook Trigger, it runs automatically on each incoming webhook—no scheduler required. It remains active until you manually deactivate it.
