New HTTP Advanced Extractor

We’re introducing a new HTTP Advanced Extractor component, now available in Beta.

New HTTP Advanced Extractor

This component (kds-team.ex-http-extended) allows you to make HTTP GET requests to specified endpoints and store the response as a file in your storage. It provides greater flexibility compared to the standard HTTP extractor by supporting:

Key Features:

  • Custom Headers and Parameters - Define HTTP headers and query parameters using plain values or user-defined variables.
  • User Parameters with Optional Hashing - Store credentials or other inputs as user parameters. Use # to hash sensitive values securely.
  • Dynamic Value Functions - User parameters can be computed dynamically using built-in functions:
    • string_to_date — e.g., convert “yesterday” into a formatted date string
    • concat — build strings such as dynamic URLs
    • Functions can be nested for more complex transformations
  • Additional Request Configuration - Optional fields like cookies, timeout, proxies, verify, and allow_redirects provide full control over the request behavior.

You can find setup instructions and examples in the component documentation.

The component is currently in Beta, and we welcome your feedback as we continue to refine its functionality. If you need help with the migration, please contact our support team via your project.
