The httpClient sends the request of an exchange to a Web Server using the HTTP protocol. Usually it will be globally used inside the transport. However, it is also possible to use it inside a proxy to give the proxy an individual configuration for its outgoing HTTP connection that is different from the global configuration in the transport.

Syntax

<httpClient failOverOn5XX="[boolean]" keepAliveTimeout="[long]" />
