Hey Guys!
I’ve tried to post to a ServiceNow endpoint from Exalate with httpClient but nothing happened and I can’t see any call in the system logs of ServiceNow.
So my question is, does **httpClient.post()** work in this case?
My code is the following:
```auto
httpClient.post("/api/now/table/task_time_worked", "{\"task\":\"1dd598011bcf9850eb92777edc4bcb74\",\"time_in_seconds\":1,\"comments\":\"A\",\"u_start_time\":\"2020-03-1611:00:00\",\"u_type\":\"normal\",\"user\":\"e0c6e02ddb2333007f76af2648961980\"}")
```
The same endpoint with the same body works with Postman. Furthermore some other ServiceNow GET endpoints work as well from Exalate.
Do you have any idea what can be the problem?
Thank you!

Can you check in the logging?
The logging is accessible by downloading [the exalate support zip](https://docs.idalko.com/exalate/x/vQKOAQ). The logfile is accessible there
