##<iron-ajax>
The iron-ajax
element exposes network request functionality.
<iron-ajax auto url="http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/" params='{"alt":"json", "q":"chrome"}' handle-as="json" on-response="handleResponse" debounce-duration="300"></iron-ajax>
With auto
set to true
, the element performs a request whenever its url
, params
or body
properties are changed. Automatically generated requests will be debounced in the case that multiple attributes are changed sequentially.
Note: The params
attribute must be double quoted JSON.
You can trigger a request explicitly by calling generateRequest
on the element.
##<iron-request>
iron-request can be used to perform XMLHttpRequests.
<iron-request id="xhr"></iron-request> ... this.$.xhr.send({url: url, params: params});
