      Hello,

      Can someone put the result here, please?

      I am not an ABAPer and curious about the result. 🙂

      Thanks and Regards,

      hi Horst,

      Happy holidays to you as well!

      A minor suggestion for improvement. You should have base64 encoded the string 'Seasons Greetings!'  and use CL_HTTP_UTILITY to decode it in the code. That would have made the result less obvious 😀

      But it should be obviously a greeting card also for those not having 7.40, SP08.
