console.log(response.body);      // Response body as a string or base64-encoded string

var response = web.get("https://api.example.com/data");

// Check if the response status code is in the success range (between 200 and 299, inclusive).

    console.log("Request succeeded.");
    console.log(response.body);

    // An error occurred while sending the request (e.g., network error, timeout, etc.).
