I am trying to figure out how to use the HTTP Task to get a return from the AWS services. I found the following structure but am not sure how to map it to the VC interface/fields.

This is the syntax of the request provided by the AWS website.

GET /2012-09-25/jobs/jobId HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: charset=UTF-8
Accept: */*
Host: elastictranscoder.Elastic Transcoder endpoint.amazonaws.com:443
x-amz-date: 20130114T174952Z
Authorization: AWS4-HMAC-SHA256
Credential=AccessKeyID/request-date/Elastic Transcoder endpoint/elastictranscoder/aws4_request,
SignedHeaders=host;x-amz-date;x-amz-target,
Signature=calculated-signature


Any direction on how to get the HTTP task to work with this syntax would be greatly appreciated.

So, what problems are you having with HTTP Task?

It sound like you could do a normal Get on: https://elastictranscoder.Elastic  Transcoder endpoint.amazonaws.com/2012-09-25/jobs/jobId

And set the correct Authorization headers. I recommend installing ARC in chrome and get it to work there first.

This is all new to me. Please forgive my ignorance.

I am not sure what data values from the AWS syntax to put in the form of the VC UI. Any more guidance would be greatly appreciated.

It is about the headers. You need to add the Headers tab exactly as in the original post and use a GET as in the post. We really recommend testing side by side the ARC app in chrome so you can see the result there. Probably, someone else have set this up in similar tool.
