Hello everyone,

Nice board you have here. I had a question to which I think I know the answer, but since I am new to mainframe job development, I'm not quite sure.

Is there a away to make an HTTP POST to a specific URL (with correct params) via JCL?

No, all JCL can do is sequentially run a program and allocate the proper input and output resources. You'll need to define a program to handle the posts.

That's what I thought, but thanks for the confirmation.
