How To Make Simple HTTP Requests in Power Automate

How do your communicate with applications that don’t have connectors in Power Automate? The answer is HTTP requests. HTTP allows you to expand Power Automate to virtually any application through the concept of REST APIs. In this video, Henry goes through an example of using HTTP requests in Power Automate to ping and receive customer data from an online application, and then transmit it to a Teams message.

You missed a very important point in your Parse JSON action. How/Where did you get the schema for the JSON file?

I need create a flow to receive a PDF file via API Rest and extract data from file with AI Builder but. Do you know how to receive the file in Json and use it to extract data?

I am creating a flow which send GET request API, but it takes around 8-10 minutes of time to get the data, but unfortunately HTTP request is getting timeout as default limit is set to 2 minutes ? is there any way I can extend the timeout period ?
