HTTP Connection Manager
Applies to: 
SQL Server
SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory
An HTTP connection enables a package to access a Web server by using HTTP to send or receive files. The Web Service task that SQL Server Integration Services includes uses this connection manager.
When you add an HTTP connection manager to a package, Integration Services creates a connection manager that will resolve to an HTTP connection at run time, sets the connection manager properties, and adds the connection manager to the Connections collection on the package.
The ConnectionManagerType property of the connection manager is set to HTTP.
You can configure the HTTP connection manager the following ways:
Use credentials. If the connection manager uses credentials, its properties include the user name, password, and domain.
Important
The HTTP connection manager supports only anonymous authentication and basic authentication. It does not support Windows Authentication.
Use a client certificate. If the connection manager uses a client certificate, its properties include the certificate name.
Provide a time-out for connecting to the server and a chunk size for writing data.
Use a proxy server. The proxy server can also be configured to use credentials and to bypass the proxy server and use local addresses instead.
Configuration of the HTTP Connection Manager
You can set properties through SSIS Designer or programmatically.
For information about configuring a connection manager programmatically, see ConnectionManager.
HTTP Connection Manager Editor (Server Page)
Use the Server tab of the HTTP Connection Manager Editor dialog box to configure the HTTP Connection Manager by specifying properties such as the URL and security credentials. An HTTP connection enables a package to access a Web server by using HTTP to send or receive files. After configuring the HTTP Connection Manager, you can also test the connection.
Important
The HTTP connection manager supports only anonymous authentication and basic authentication. It does not support Windows Authentication.

Options
Server URL
Type the URL for the server.
If you plan to use the Download WSDL button on the General page of the Web Service Task Editor to download a WSDL file, type the URL for the WSDL file. This URL ends with "?wsdl".
Use credentials
Specify whether you want the HTTP Connection Manager to use the user's security credentials for authentication.
User name
If the HTTP Connection Manager uses credentials, you must specify a user name, password, and domain.
Password
If the HTTP Connection Manager uses credentials, you must specify a user name, password, and domain.
Domain
If the HTTP Connection Manager uses credentials, you must specify a user name, password, and domain.
Use client certificate
Specify whether you want the HTTP Connection Manager to use a client certificate for authentication.
Certificate
Select a certificate from the list by using the Select Certificate dialog box. The text box displays the name associated with this certificate.
Time-out (in seconds)
Provide a time-out for connecting to the Web server. The default value of this property is 30 seconds.
Chunk size (in KB)
Provide a chunk size for writing data.
Test Connection
After configuring the HTTP Connection Manager, confirm that the connection is viable by clicking Test Connection.
HTTP Connection Manager Editor (Proxy Page)
Use the Proxy tab of the HTTP Connection Manager Editor dialog box to configure the HTTP Connection Manager to use a proxy server. An HTTP connection enables a package to access a Web server by using HTTP to send or receive files.
To learn more about the HTTP connection manager, see HTTP Connection Manager. To learn more about a common usage scenario for the HTTP Connection Manager, see Web Service Task.
Options
Use proxy
Specify whether you want the HTTP Connection Manager to connect through a proxy server.
Proxy URL
Type the URL for the proxy server.
Bypass proxy on local
Specify whether you want the HTTP Connection Manager to bypass the proxy server for local addresses.
Use credentials
Specify whether you want the HTTP Connection Manager to use security credentials for the proxy server.
User name
If the HTTP Connection Manager uses credentials, you must specify a user name, password, and domain.
Password
If the HTTP Connection Manager uses credentials, you must specify a user name, password, and domain.
Domain
If the HTTP Connection Manager uses credentials, you must specify a user name, password, and domain.
