It's Java behind that SQL function so you need the JVM being used for SQL to like the cert. I'd try munging something together myself, but my box can't talk outside our NOC. But this link should have the information you need:

Subject: Re: SQL HTTP Function to get a text file from web service
Importance: Low
Well, I seem to have made a bit of progress.
SELECT SYSTOOLS.HTTPGETCLOB('<the url>',
cast('<httpHeader>
<header name="User-Agent" value="<the agent>" /> <ditto for the others>
But, the next hurdle is a certificate error. I didn't have any issues with that using Python.
"The certificate issued by CN=DST Root CA X3, O=Digital Signature Trust Co. is not trusted"
My knowledge of dealing with certs is pretty minimal.
Once I get past that, I feel like the dog chasing a car. What do I do when I catch it?

Subject: SQL HTTP Function to get a text file from web service
I have a Python script that downloads a text file from a web service. Looks like this:
response = requests.get(
url="https:<the url>",
headers={
"Accept": "text/tab",
"API-TOKEN": "<the token>",
"SITE-USER": "<the user>",
"user-agent": "<the agent>",
}
)
with open(TxtFileName, 'wb') as outputFile:
outputFile.write(response.content)
outputFile.close()
Is this easily replicated using one of the SQL HTTP functions? After download we put in a PF and feed a downstream process.
I feel like I should be able to figure this out but I'm just... stumped.
Thanks!!
