Is there a Flow HTTP GET Request object?

Is there any way to use the response in a Shopify Flow’s HTTP GET Request.

Its there as an option so I’m assuming its usable in the next conditions/actions but theres no documentation of what the response object is. eg {{ response }} {{ response.body }} etc.

Hi timd,

Thanks for your post. There isn’t currently a way to do anything with the response for any of the HTTP request types aside from Flow automatically making the decision on whether to proceed with the next step or not based on the HTTP code.

This can be useful in cases such as a server being configured to react to the request or transmitting data in the form of URL parameters.

Thanks for explaining that!

So just to clarify, is the returned url passed on an an object? Would it be possible to return JSON data in a GET request’s URL parameters and use the returned URL/parameters in the next step’s conditions/actions?

At this time, the only data returned to the Flow app from the HTTP get request is the HTTP code.
