 The `http` destination of {{% param "product.abbrev" %}} can directly post log messages to web services using the HTTP protocol. The `http` destination has the following options.

+|          |                    |
+| -------- | ------------------ |

+*Description:* Use `accept-encoding()` to request the server to compress the HTTP responses. ({{% param "product.abbrev" %}} doesn't currently use them, but they still contribute to network traffic.) To compress the messages sent by {{% param "product.abbrev" %}}, see the [`content-compression()` option](#content-compression).
