Hello! Sorry, there seems to be some misunderstanding. It's not possible today, but I'll check if it's planned to implement.

You need to set method to POST.

Yes i believe there is a misunderstanding, please allow me to be more clear here.

Im not saying its not possible, we are able to post json, its just that the process is complicated and causing us more trouble than its worth it would be really nice if we could simplify the development process.

The way I understand it is you must create the service, then in edit mapping we need to add javascript to stringify an object in order to return for a particular parameter.

mapping the response is incredibly difficult and involved when posting dynamic objects this way

I need this type of configuration

to return an abject like this:

&reqObject=
{"Name":"community","View":"activity","Task":"getactivities","taskData":{"page":"0","type":"activity"}}

when posting to the rest service, this is currently only possible if i do the following

the problem with this approach is that with an API with over 100 different calls and configurations I basically need 1 service for each one, when ideally this could be accomplished with a single service and the nice drag n drop interface if the request options to return as json were available.

What I was trying to communicate above as a suggested feature would look something like the following

another cool feature to add after adding the return as object feature would be to allow encrypting the returned object for more secure services

It is an interesting features.. we'll see what's the best way to implement it. Thank you.
