C.2 Transfer information file

In a transfer information file, you set information about a request to a web API. The file format and items that can be specified in the file differ depending on the web API to be called. If there is no information to be sent when a request is sent, you do not need to create the transfer information file.

If you include security information (such as a password) in this file, you do so on your own responsibility.

The following table describes the specifications of the transfer information file.

    parameter-name=parameter-value[&parameter-name=parameter-value&parameter-name=...]

  • If the request information contains a value that requires URL encoding, in the transfer information file, you must specify the value in the URL-encoded format.
