The HTTP Argument Setting Action plugin is available in the Hub.

Plugin version: 1.1.1

Performs an HTTP request to fetch arguments to set in the pipeline.

This is most commonly used when the structure of a pipeline is static, and its configuration needs to be managed outside the pipeline.

The HTTP response must return the arguments in a list:

{
    "arguments" : [
        { "name": "argument name", "value": "argument value" },
        ...
    ]
}

Recommended: For better security and ease of use, use the GCS Argument Setter rather than the HTTP Argument Setter, which doesn’t provide authentication support.
