Hi all,

Please take a look here: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/56948 
It states when i successfully login i get a X-VMWARE-VCLOUD-ACCESS-TOKEN
However with the HTTP task of visualcron i don't see this header response, when i use Postman it works.

Is this a limitation of visualcron?

What do you mean you are not seeing it? In the Task we only return the main response - not headers. But maybe you want the headers alone as result?

Henrik,

Yes the problem is that the Authorization response of vCloud Director is in the Header.

I am not getting the full picture but we are not returning the headers as output but the general http response.

So, what you need is to be able to get headers, from a Task, as Variable?

Henrik,

When you see the link i have attached than you will get it i think.
Basically, the response of my POST is in the Header, not the Body...
But the Response Header is not shown in vcron.

I am not sure I see the problem.

It seems you want to call two links.

In the second HTTP request you want to use a specific HEADER. What is the problem with this?

Henrik,

No i do just 1 call.
But the response i get is not in the return header and it don't see that in vcron.
Nevermind, i solved it via powershell.

Just want to understand. You say you do not see the result in response header. We do not return any headers. We just return the httpwebrequest response. If you share your code we might be able to confirm this and implement this support in VisualCron.

Henrik,

That is exactly the issue.
The response is in the header area.
See: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/56948  Point 8 "In 'Headers', copy the x-vcloud-authorization token."
