What is the server equivalent of $ .ajax () in Google Apps scripting?
I want to make an HTTP request from server-side code in a Google Script app with a header Authorization
. Is there a Script Application API for sending HTTP requests?
What is the equivalent of this code in Google Apps Script?
var api = "URL";
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: api,
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType:'json',
data: {},
beforeSend: function(xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization', makeBaseAuth('username', 'password'));
}
});

You can send HTTP requests using an object UrlFetchApp
. It has a method fetch(url, params)
that returns HTTPResponse
information about the HTTP fetch result.
function testapi(){
var encode = Utilities.base64Encode('username:password', Utilities.Charset.UTF_8);
Logger.log(encode);
var option = {
headers : {
Authorization: "Basic "+ encode
}
}
var url = "URL";
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, option).getContentText()
response = JSON.parse(response);
for (var key in response){
Logger.log(key);
}
}
