The HTTP/S Connector allows to connect to such external systems using the HTTP/S protocol. TODOFor example if you would like to make RESTful calls.

Typically such endpoints are secured with username and password or a token. You should never place such sensitive data into your source code. Instead, create a new Secrets and refer to it in your pipeline.

Here is an example to access the GitHub API using the command http.get and a custom secret, created before:

Code Block
languageyaml
pipeline:
  - http.get:
      url: "https://api.github.com/owner/repo/actions/artifacts"
      secret: "github-secret"

This will return a JSON document like this example, which can be used in the pipeline for further processing:

Code Block
languagejson
{
  "total_count": 1,
  "artifacts": [
    {
      "id": 11,
      "node_id": "MDg6QXJ0bbZhY3QxMQ==",
      "name": "Rails",
      "size_in_bytes": 556,
      "url": "https://api.github.com/repos/owner/repo/actions/artifacts/11",
      "archive_download_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/owner/repo/actions/artifacts/11/zip",
