HTTP POST Is VPN required?

Hi!

I don't think so, it's necessary. I'm using the following coding, and it's working, without any VPN settings.

DATA: sysid TYPE srcsystem.
 
  DATA: command TYPE string,
        lv_application TYPE string,
        returncode TYPE  i.
 
  DATA: c1(200) TYPE c,
        c2(200) TYPE c,
        c3(200) TYPE c,
        c4(200) TYPE c,
        c5(200) TYPE c.
 
  DATA: lv_objkey_url TYPE borident-objkey,
        lv_index TYPE sy-index,
        lv_length TYPE i.
 
  CALL FUNCTION 'GET_SYSTEM_NAME'
       IMPORTING
            system_name = sysid.
 
    MOVE 'http://www.fedex.com'    "'http://www.sap.com' 
                TO c1.
 
    CONCATENATE c1 c2 c3 c4 c5 INTO command.   "here you can add your order number to the URL
    CONCATENATE 'url.dll,FileProtocolHandler'
                command
           INTO command
       SEPARATED BY space.
 
    MOVE 'rundll32' TO lv_application.
    CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute
       EXPORTING
         APPLICATION            = lv_application
         PARAMETER              = command
       EXCEPTIONS
         CNTL_ERROR             = 1
         ERROR_NO_GUI           = 2
         BAD_PARAMETER          = 3
         FILE_NOT_FOUND         = 4
         PATH_NOT_FOUND         = 5
         FILE_EXTENSION_UNKNOWN = 6
         ERROR_EXECUTE_FAILED   = 7
         others                 = 8
            .
  ENDIF.

It will bring up a browser and opens the given homepage.

Try out with different HTTP addresses as well...

However if you wanted to call a web service, that's a bit different, for that, you have to create FM-s with proper parameters.

Hi !!

I tried the following code and it seems to be working..

REPORT xx .

DATA: status_code(100),

status_text(100),

response_entity_body_length TYPE i.

*COMPONENT_DATA TYPE DATA.

TYPES: BEGIN OF text,

line(120) TYPE c,

END OF text.

DATA: request_headers TYPE TABLE OF text WITH HEADER LINE,

request TYPE TABLE OF text WITH HEADER LINE,

response_headers TYPE TABLE OF text WITH HEADER LINE,

response TYPE TABLE OF text WITH HEADER LINE.

request-line = 'FirstName=YY&Surname=hghgj&Birth=10860319&Gender=F&mail=xxxxdssd.com&Nationality=EL'.

APPEND response.

request-line = '&Address1=ddddddddd&Address2=Rafina&City=xxx&Postcode=19009&Country=el&LandTelephone=22374664556'.

APPEND response.

request-line = '&Mobiletelephone=fdfdfdfdfdf&Occupation=1&Income=1890087&Networth=10000&NetWorth=1000&Currency=1&Leverage=1'.

APPEND response.

CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_PUT_COMPONENT'

EXPORTING

IMPORTING

status_code = status_code

status_text = status_text

response_entity_body_length = response_entity_body_length

TABLES

request_headers = request_headers

response_headers = response_headers

response_entity_body = response

component_data = request

EXCEPTIONS

.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.
