Adding an HTTP/S service

HTTP and HTTPS (the secure version of HTTP) services are primarily used for providing web-based file transfers. Web-based file transfers allow users to transfer files through a web browser. The HTTP/S service is also needed in AS2 file transfers.

Setting up a usable HTTP or HTTPS service, even for testing purposes, takes a bit more than just adding the HTTP/S service in the Service module.

For more information about setting up an HTTP or HTTPS service, read the chapter on Web-based file transfers in this documentation.
