Hello

Is HTTP POST method with form-data body supported for HTTP Providers ?

I have a HTTPProvider (extends HTTPProvider2Base) that I use to send playlists that needs to be played to the wowza server.

It is working great as of now using GET method (ex : http://:8086/updatePlaylist?playlist=…) but I have a requierement to change this to a POST request so taht we can have longer playlists (GET URL as a limited size)

The result would be

http://:8086/updatePlaylist with all the data passed as a form-data POST request.

I can’t find how to do it in the API documentation. Is it even possible to access the http request body with wowza api ?

Thanks in advance
