  • Basically in salesforce we take rest API help to make callout to external system and pulled/pushed the data in external system. REST API Developer Guide

  • By including a username and password in your page you are allowing someone who wants to hack direct access to the external system which is usually dangerous. Making the request from the server-side in Apex avoids that problem.

  • I am able to submit a GET request. Are you too able to make a GET request and not able to submit a POST?

Set the name attribute;


<input type="Json" name="JSON" id="JSON" value="{!fleet_Car_Set__c.JSON_String__c}"/>

It is working for me when I post a GET request to a url action= "http://localhost:8080/XXX".

Edit: 

value="{!fleet_Car_Set__c.JSON_String__c}"
is fine. No need to add extra '' or ()
