HTTP request method examples

The RPA.HTTP library builds on top of (extends) the robotframework-requests Robot Framework library. That means you can use RPA.HTTP like you would use RequestsLibrary.

The following is a copy of the test cases from the robotframework-requests library. They provide detailed examples of how to use HTTP request methods (DELETE, GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, PATCH, POST, PUT) with Robot Framework.

These robots are only for reference since they require custom files. Use rpaframework version 14.1.1 or newer. See robotframework-requests library tests for more examples!
