Timeout:

When you send a HTTP request, you can use this parameter to specify the maximum response time for the connection.

HTTP Setting:

You can select the protocol version of the HTTP request under HTTP Version, either HTTP 1.0 or 1.1.

Compression:

You can activate gzip compression for the request body with this option. This applies to HTTP Version 1.1 only.

Compressed Response:

By default, the SAP Web Application Server sends the field Accepot-Encoding as a header field with the value gzip, as long as the application server controls this compression. Sometimes, this can cause the partner to also send its data in compressed form. If you do not want a compressed response, then choose this option.

HTTP Cookie:

Use this option to control the way received cookies are handled, as follows:

  • Accept cookies automatically
  • Reject cookies automatically
  • Be prompted whether you want to accept or reject cookies
  • Special handling by triggering an event automatically. The application uses the EVENTKIND_HANDLE_COOKIE event of the IF_HTTP_CLIENT interface to handle inbound cookies.
