HTTP client class
=================
:ref:`HTTPClient <class_HTTPClient>` provides low-level access to HTTP communication.
For a higher-level interface, you may want to take a look at :ref:`HTTPRequest <class_HTTPRequest>` first,
which has a tutorial available :ref:`here <doc_http_request_class>`.
.. warning::
When exporting to Android, make sure to enable the ``INTERNET``
permission in the Android export preset before exporting the project or
using one-click deploy. Otherwise, network communication of any kind will be
blocked by Android.
Here's an example of using the :ref:`HTTPClient <class_HTTPClient>`
class. It's just a script, so it can be run by executing:
.. tabs::
.. code-tab:: console GDScript
c:\godot> godot -s http_test.gd
.. code-tab:: console C#
c:\godot> godot -s HTTPTest.cs
It will connect and fetch a website.
.. tabs::
.. code-tab:: gdscript GDScript
