Executing HTTP Requests
The http_request
function allows developers to perform additional HTTP POST/GET requests during a page interaction, unlocking access to more data. By capturing these internal API calls, you can directly access key data in machine-readable formats like JSON, bypassing the need to parse HTML.

body | Optional | The Body for the HTTP request | String - body |
headers | Optional | Additional headers required for the request (JSON) | Object - {"key" : "value"} |
