I’m trying to find some information on HTTP binding. I can successfully get a stock price with the following url in a system.net.httpGet script function but can’t get it to work on a perspective label with HTTP binding. I’m sure there is something I’m missing.

[https://api.iextrading.com/1.0/stock/aapl/price](https://api.iextrading.com/1.0/stock/aapl/price)

I’m simply entering the URL in the URL field with the GET method selected.

Thanks,  
Pete

The URL provided works for me in an HTTP binding. What error are you seeing? Are you wrapping the url in quotes? Urls are expressions.

That was it - I had omitted the quotes. Thank you!

Now the next step I’m trying to render a QR Code in an image object using HTTP binding. The following renders a png image and I’m not getting an error but the image is not rendering:

[https://api.qrserver.com/v1/create-qr-code/?size=150x150&data=Example](https://api.qrserver.com/v1/create-qr-code/?size=150x150&data=Example)

Thanks,

Do you need to use an HTTP binding? When I paste the QR code image URL you provided into the image component’s source prop, it renders the QR code for me.

Once again you are correct. Thanks for the quick responses!
