RequestCycle(4.2)

When the HTTP/2 Server agent receives a request it converts it to a RequestCycle UDR that is routed into the workflow. The UDR will then get the Response(4.2) field populated in the workflow before being routed back to the HTTP/2 Server agent.

The following fields are included in the RequestCycle UDR:

FieldDescription
authToken (HttpAuthTokenUDR)If Token Authentication has been selected in the agent configuration, the AuthToken UDR will contain the the required information for authentication.

This field contains the message body, i e the payload, of the request. For a request, the presence of a message body is indicated by the presence of a Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding field.

You can then read the TCPIPUDR from the Context field in the RequestCycle UDR that contains the answer, and use it to send back a response to the TCP/IP collection agent.
