Public Sub SendCustomRequest(ByVal HttpMethod As String, ByVal SecretName As String, ByVal VersionId As String, ByVal Action As String, ByVal Body As String)

Remarks

This method can be used to send arbitrary requests to the server.

Valid values for HttpMethod are:

  • GET (default if empty)
  • HEAD
  • POST
  • PUT
  • PATCH
  • DELETE

SecretName, VersionId, Action, and Body are optional. If SecretName is empty, VersionId will be ignored.

When this method is called, the component does the following:

  1. Builds a request URL, including query parameters, like https://secretmanager.googleapis.com/v1/projects/{GoogleProjectId}[/secrets/{SecretName}[/versions/{VersionId}]][{Action}] using:
  2. Adds an Authorization header with the value specified by Authorization.
  3. Adds any request headers from OtherHeaders.
  4. Adds the specified request Body, if non-empty.
  5. Sends the request to the server.
  6. Stores the response headers in the ParsedHeaders collection; and the response body in the stream specified using SetOutputStream, the specified LocalFile, or SecretData.

If the response body is JSON data, the XPath, XText, and other X* configuration settings can then be used to navigate and extract information from it.
