3.6.19 Send Request via HTTP/HTTPS (V2)
With this function, the phone can send a specific HTTP or HTTPS request to a server. The func-
tion is available at any time, irrespective of registration and call state. Possible uses are HTTP-
controlled features on the SIP server, e. g. hunt group login/logout, or functions on a web server
that can only be triggered by HTTP/HTTPS request, e. g. login/logout for flexible working hours.
The Protocol parameter defines whether HTTP or HTTPS is to be used for sending the URL
to the server.
The Web server address is the IP address or DNS name of the remote server to which the
URL is to be sent.
The Port is the target port at the server to which the URL is to be sent.
The Path is the server-side path to the desired function, i. e. the part of the URL that follows
the IP address or DNS name. Example: webpage/checkin.html
In the Parameters field, one or more key/value pairs in the format "<key>=<value>" can be
added to the request, separated by an ampersand (&).
Example: phonenumber=3338&action=huntGroupLogon

The question mark will be automatically added between the path and the parame-
ters. If a question mark has been entered at the start of the parameters, it will be
stripped off automatically.
