GET

The HTTP GET method requests a representation of the specified resource.
Requests using GET should only be used to request data (they shouldn't include data).


We already know how to make a basic GET Method from the API Example Page.
This Page explains How to make GET Method API with URL Path and Get a response from this API!

Goal

Add New GET Path (in APIs Page)

➡️ Add New GET Path (in Server Page).

As you know, we already made API and Server.
So, we just add a NEW PATH and add this in the Server in the API Autoflow
Follow the below steps!


note

We will make the below GET method with the URL path.

GET /my/{name}
Then we will get a response "Oh! Your name is {name}" from this API.

1. Add New Path with URL Path

We already made Autoflow API and Autoflow Server.
So we will use this which we made.
Then just add new a Path with URL PATH!

1.1 Click the Add Path button and write your Path name!

First, we click the Add Path button.
Then we will write the path name with bracket {name} .
In /my/{name} , {name} means that you can receive the path you want as the path of URL.
And we select the GET Method.
