How to have HTTP-IN Node Functionality But URL Setting Not Static?

Understanding that you need http-in -> Some Task -> http-response as the flow sequence, how does one minic the http-in node but allowing specification of the URL parameter as dynamic value?

2

Can you give a couple of examples of what the url should look like please?

3

/base/:path1/:path2 -- that's the supports /base/two/three, /base/five/six, ....

msg.req.params.path1 is set along with msg.req.params.path2

is that what you're looking for?

If you mean Ip is static and you want a dynamic url path, then it is noted in the nodes sidebar help text, as @gregorius has shown.

The node will listen on the configured path for requests of a particular type. The path can be fully specified, such as /user, or include named parameters that accept any value, such as /user/:name. When named parameters are used, their actual value in a request can be accessed under msg.req.params.

Not mentioned in the help, you can set the named parameters as optional using th ?
e.g. /user/:name?.
