Request-FP v1.3.1 release notes

On this page

Release date: November 8, 2026

Bug-fix release. No API removals.

Behavior changes

Sessions return every status. THttpSession.Get/Post/PostJSON/Put/Delete no longer raise for statuses such as 201, 202, 404, or 500. Check Response.OK or call Response.RaiseForStatus, as with Http.*.
Sessions raise ERequestError for transport failures, including Post/PostJSON, which previously leaked FPC exception types.
OpenSSL loads lazily. It loads on the first HTTPS request, so HTTP-only programs start without OpenSSL. Call EnsureSSL at startup to fail fast.
No console output from the library outside DEBUG builds.

Response.SaveToFile no longer corrupts binary bodies.
Unix now treats a failed InitSSLInterface as an error.
Removed a test-mode shortcut that could downgrade https://httpbin.org requests to HTTP.

Code that relied on a session raising for 4xx/5xx should call Response.RaiseForStatus.
Handlers that caught Exception around session calls keep working; they can narrow to ERequestError.
