Multipart Encoded HTTP Entity Creator

Palladian for KNIME version 2.3.0.202009251618 by palladian.ws; Philipp Katz, Klemens Muthmann, David Urbansky

Combines string and/or binary data to an HTTP multipart/form-data encoded request. The output is a binary cell which contains the combined multipart data and which then can be sent by the “HTTP Retriever” node.

Important: This node creates a dynamic boundary string, e.g. --xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo_1512650655272. This string is appended as separate column to the output table which contains the entity’s content type. This very string needs to be selected in the HTTP Retriever’s “HTTP entity content type” setting. We recommend to connect a “Table Row to Variable” node to this node’s out port, which gets connected to the HTTP Retriever, where you select content type through the flow variable configuration.

Options
