Rest ExecuteHead

Use this command to retrieve headers that would be returned if the URL were requested with the Rest ExecuteGet command. The command can be used for obtaining metainformation about the entity specified by the request without transferring the entity-body itself. In conjunction with REST GERESPONSEHEADER and REST GETRESPONSESTATUS commands, this command can be used for testing hypertext links for validity, accessibility, and recent modification.

Syntax:

REST EXECUTEHEAD url [Timeout]

where:

  • url is the resource to retrieve the information from.
  • Timeout is the time to wait, in seconds, for the total request.

Syntax example:

REST EXECUTEHEAD "http://api.fixer.io/latest"
