At this time logging payloads is not supported. Although there are plans

You can do a trick where you have input parameter that is of character
type and not injected from any input source, with a length large enough to
handle input request, and best to make it varchar.

Then any REST requests that are inbound will be put into the parameter
as-is. It will not be parsed. Thus, it is up to you to do the parsing.

I haven't seen any way to do this so far, but I thought I'd ask the

group...

Is there any way to capture the 'payload'/body sent in? Ideally,
pre-execution of the program or service program call from within
IWS. If not, is there a way to capture it in the called pgm perhaps
as a BLOB that could be stored?

Thanks!
