I        This condition is triggered when a connected client sends a GET request.


Users of GET include web browsers doing normal URL loading, browser webpages using <form method="GET" …>, and Fusion extensions Web Query Object, Get object and Download object.

The Download object uses GET for downloading, and can also supply GET items by putting them in the URL passed to download. For more info, see the Request > Get GET item expression.


Note that HEAD request event are by standard considered the same as a GET request, but the response is meant to exclude the content body, and just return the header.

It is useful in scenarios like a downloader using HEAD to read the Content-Length response header, which will contain the download size in bytes. The Download object allows you to use HEAD in this way via an expression.
