You can do this via GroovyHttpClient within the outgoing and incoming sync scripts in Exalate.

Below is an example to do so.

def method = "GET"
def apiRoute = "https://eoo4591jwa8w4mz.m.pipedream.net?AAA=BBB"
def ghc = new GroovyHttpClient(httpClient)

def foo = ghc.http(
      method,
      apiRoute,
      null,
      ["Authorization":["BASIC Zm9vOmJhcg=="]]
    ) { response ->
    if (response.code >= 300 && response.code != 404) {
        throw new com.exalate.api.exception.IssueTrackerException("Failed to perform the request $method ${apiRoute} (status ${response.code}), and body was: \n\"${response.body}\"\n".toString())
    }
    if (response.code == 404) {
        log.debug("#groovyhttpclient $method ${apiRoute} responded with a 404")
        return null
    }
    def txt     = response.body as String
    def js      = new groovy.json.JsonSlurper()
    js.parseText(txt)
}

A similar request can be done for POST/PUT/PATCH etc.

I hope this helps!

Thanks, Dhiren
