Question 1

What can the HTTP Request node connect to?

Accepted Answer

It can call any service that exposes an HTTP REST API or webhook. This makes it the way to integrate tools that do not yet have a dedicated NoClick node, from internal services to niche SaaS products.

Question 2

Which HTTP methods does the node support?

Accepted Answer

The node supports GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE. Each method lets you set a target URL and custom headers, and the write methods accept a JSON request body.

Question 3

Can I pass data from earlier nodes into a request?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can reference upstream output inside the URL, headers, or body using the {{nodeId.output.field}} syntax. This lets you build dynamic requests from data produced earlier in the workflow.

Question 4

How do I authenticate HTTP requests?

Accepted Answer

The node supports API key authentication via a custom header, HTTP Basic authentication with a username and password, and Bearer token authentication. You can also pass credentials through custom headers if a service needs a different scheme.

Question 5

Can the node both send and receive webhooks?

Accepted Answer

It handles the outbound side: you can POST to any webhook URL to notify external systems. To receive inbound webhooks that start a workflow, use NoClick's dedicated webhook trigger instead.
