Though indeed the integration allows you to specify any request method, even invalid ones:

…I wonder if it supports GET. Maybe it’s only supposed to support POST and PUT and maybe PATCH, so: any method that expects a request body?

Unless @johan can tell us more, I’d use POST rather than wasting time on GET. If you really want GET, then first test with https://requestb.in or FYI: TTN HTTP integration with 📩 Request Baskets instead of RequestBin.

https://putsreq.com allows you to change the POST request/body whatever, with JavaScript,
and pass it on to another webhook

eg: (for passing on only the payload fields)

var parsedBody = JSON.parse(request.body);
request.body = parsedBody.payload_fields;
request.forwardTo = 'YOURURI';

For a GET forward you stick your data onto the YOURURI as QueryString parameters

Indeed you can use PUT or PATCH. You can do a GET but since the content is in the body and not the query string, this can only be used to trigger and endpoint.

We don’t support GET and data in the query string like it’s 1998.
