Hi @vitalijs1
not clear to me if your example is a fully working example. I noticed that in your SOAP request there are username and password fields. Remember that we need a working example that we can use to reproduce the problem and take a look at your issue

I can confirm the problem. Until 2.2 I can send a POST request with HTTP POST. After that, until now (2.5) I can't. If I use the Rest Client transform instead, I'm able to send my POST request again.

I'm sending the request to a report-server, that expects the following json body:

{"submit":"submit",
"reportname":"Reportname",
"gitlab_branch":"MASTER",
"jobname":"2023-07-12-10-25"}

content-type json, that's it.

The body and content-type remains the same in rest client transform.

This was probably caused by enabling multipart on the data transfers, I changed this into an option this should resemble the old way of posting the requests more. It would be great if you could test this and provide feedback

[KBoersch]

Yeah sure. I will give you feedback, as soon as the new snapshot is out :)
