Total no support; it is hard to use for new Scratchers, it can steal your e-mail address, post comments or forum posts without permission, and more.
For example:

send POST request [https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/1/topic/add/] body [title=Scratch is dumb;content=I hate Scratch >::DDD I don't like you] :: extension

Don't take it seriously, I like Scratch and the community.
Doing something like that will make a new forum topic without the user's permission. Innocent people will get an alert or even get banned.

Oh.
So that's why this shouldn't be added.
Question: Does this bypass the word filter?

Well no, but probably yes.
Also, dupe?

That topic was created after this one (this topic is from 2014).

As for this suggestion, no support because of the misuse the blocks could do.

It doesn't because the filter is server side.

how can you do this, I want to make one too.

No, because the bad word detector (or the filter, whatever you call it) is on the Scratch servers.

Hm. I always thought POST and GET were just separate request fields, not different kinds of requests.

They are. GET requests don't have a request body and instead add parameters to the URL. POST requests add parameters to a request body.

GET requests can have request body params. Some api's require API tokens to use GET which can be put in the request body. The only difference is that GET doesn't change anything on the API's side.

SUPPORT!

That's circular logic silly

I don't really support, but FYI I think Snap! has this feature: the

url [snap.berkeley.edu] :: reporter sensing

Hello

@RichieNB Please, I want to use the HTTP get block that you create.

I want to get from this ip address http://192.168.3.148:5600/Info.

I want to see the response. I know that I have to get ACK.

Please, help

Regards
Nada

I'm not sure about POST requests because they could easily be a security problem, but I do support GET requests.

no support: the whole point of scratch is coding for beginners and HTML is far more advanced than scratch so sorry

Support!

it would be great to use whitelisted websites APIs, like scratch's own api
