Need help with Http.client.request !

My Endpoint code is 

<-- endpoint start -->

 

<#assign response = http.client.request("http://feeds.news.com.au/public/rss/2.0/fs_breaking_news_13.xml").get()/>

<#if response.hasError>
${response.error.message}
</#if>

 

<--endpoint end-->

 

it returns "html found in response" , what does this mean? the syntax is correct , why does it throw error?

     Hi Bowen,

     

    I believe that it is for Fox Sports Australia project, I have updated some config from the backend. can you give a try again? it could be working now.

    I'm guessing your code snippet is missing the bit where you output the content of the response (or part of it).

    Related to the OPs request - does this xml() call exist?

     

    ${http.client.request(“https”,”some.api.url”,”/some/path”).xml().parameter(“paramName”,”paramValue”).post()}

    Hey Chris,

     

    This is a good catch, we actually currently don't allow the .xml() call for http.client due to security concerns. I guess Doug and I forgot this when we were creating the presentation.

     

    I will raise this request with our product owner but I suggest you also add it to Lithium Ideas. 

     

    Sorry for the confusion,

     

    Yuri
