API calls via Godot

+1 vote

Hello,
I need to make an HTTP request to an online service to retrieve some data. Is it possible by just using Godot's methods? Can anyone give me a simple example, or a link to a tutorial, because I'm a complete newbie at this, so even a hint helps.

Why don't you read the documentation about the HTTPRequest node?

Thank you both for replying. I was more looking for an example of that node's usage, since I'm a bit of a newbie with networking.
