If I want to use Flow in a business related situation, I will have to be able to send business related messages. It would nice for this information to be secured. I currently upload files to my server like this:

This issue with this approach is that an HTTP request is interceptable. I do not see an action for sending an HTTPS request, as opposed to an HTTP one. Is there a trick I can use to send an HTTPS?

Hi @AsgeirAlbretsen ,

From this thread we know that “HTTPs works for the HTTP action card, but it may require that the HTTPs endpoint is serving an SSL cert that matches the hostname”.

I have seen another blog on HTTP actions in Microsoft Flow, which could be a reference for you as well:
https://elbruno.com/2017/06/12/flow-advanced-options-to-work-with-http-actions-in-microsoftflow-headers-authentication-and-more/

Please take a try with it on your side.

Best regards,
Mabel

Hi @v-yamao-msft

The threads you linked were very helpful! I was prepairing for a god awful amount of work, but sending HTTPS requests in the HTTP module worked like a charm!

Maybe consider changing the name to HTTP/HTTPS so future networking noobies like me aren't confused 🙂 !
