Hi David,
I'll play around with that hopefully soon. I was using the content type that our vendor told us to use.

Recently a vendor of ours changed from providing an on-premise

initial testing, I was getting the data response back to the RPG
program directly and everything was fine. However due to the high
volume of data, I now have the API output the data to the IFS, and
then I parse it from there. However, when I have the API output the
file to the IFS, it's replacing the brackets as if it thinks they are
a part of the data. The quick solution was to have the process fix
the brackets, but I feel both the API changing the brackets as well as
me fixing them is taking way too long.
I'm no expert, but I suspect it's because the content type is 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'.
It should probably be returning 'application/xml' or 'text/xml'.
