So good extension.

Aunque parece bastante completo tiene algunos detalles que hacen que no pueda recomendar este producto. En las peticiones GET con Payload, el procesamiento en el servidor no se produce correctamente. Las respuestas deben ajustarse al parámetro HEADER Accept adecuado, o no se muestran ( There was a error in the response. This is often due to a mis-configured service. (al final utilizaba: Accept: "*")) Finalmente desinstalé la extensión y pasé a utilizar Talend API Tester... El producto podría mejorar si añadieran asistencia para envíos x-www-urlform-encoded o multipart/form-data. Perdí mucho tiempo usando CURL para probar (sí me funcionaba) cuando en YARC no obtenía resultados (la petición era rechazada con un 400 o con 4xx).
