# HTTP Request Action

With the help of the HTTP request action it is possible to execute HTTP requests and thus implement integrations between Helmut and third-party systems via a stream.

The available methods are GET, POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE.

The response code for the request will be provided in the node’s response object in the field “code“ and can be retrieved, altogether, by using the wildcard {node.result.?}.
