Understand the purpose of the CURL command and identify the equivalent functionality in PL/SQL.
Decompose the CURL command into its constituent parts:
- The URL being accessed
- Request headers
- Request method (GET, POST, PUT, etc.)
- Request body (if any)
Create the PL/SQL code to replicate the functionality of the CURL command, using the following basic steps:
- Set up a HTTP request object
- Set the URL, method, headers, and body on the request object
- Execute the request object and retrieve the response
Test the PL/SQL code to ensure that it returns the expected results.
Refine and optimize the PL/SQL code by revisiting the CURL command and examining the HTTP traffic it generates, as well as tweaking the code until it accurately replicates the original CURL command.
