Configure extra settings for the Universal Web API Call Action. Use these options to fine-tune API request behavior, payload handling, response processing, file output, and compatibility with specific endpoints, services, or web servers.

Extra settings are optional and are typically used only when an API endpoint, server, proxy, response output, or automation workflow requires special handling beyond the standard Action configuration.

Use extra settings to adjust advanced request and response behavior without changing the main API endpoint, method, headers, parameters, or body configuration.

ExtrasDetails
List of settingsDefine extra settings applied when executing web API calls, including request behavior, payload handling, response processing, file output, filename handling, endpoint compatibility, and other optional web communication details. For instance:
  • Transfer engine · Fine-tune data transfer, compression, certificate validation, diagnostics, and response processing behavior.
  • Connection & retries · Adjust connection timeout, automatic retry behavior, and handling of recoverable connection failures.
  • Smart Rename · Customize automatic filename numbering and padding when output files with matching names already exist.

Notes

  • Extra settings are configured separately for each Action. They affect only the selected API call operation and do not change global Internet & Web settings or Web Profile configuration.
  • Extra settings can complement the main API configuration when an endpoint requires special handling for request delivery, response processing, saved output, or advanced compatibility scenarios.
