How to use socket to make calls to https server and get xml as a response.

I hope something here helps - I'm not an expert in this area at all. There are people here who are far better at this than I am.

example.com should bbe your hostname

jSessionId should the actual value
data variable shout output when response completes
Node.js might simplify the process 

Maybe this is a bit easier then dealing with sockets, if in a browser the HTPPs requests have security restrictions and it might be better to Fetch API or XMLHttpRequest 

Again - I'm not an expert - I'm learning things every day and this has been an interesting one for me.

I'm looking forward to the replies too.

const https = require('https');

const options = {
  hostname: 'example.com',
  port: 443,
  path: '/Trebol/getIPLocal.do?sessionId=indesign',
  method: 'GET',
  headers: {
    'Cookie': `JSESSIONID=${jSessionId}`
  }
};

const req = https.request(options, (res) => {
  let data = '';

  res.on('data', (chunk) => {
    data += chunk;
  });

  res.on('end', () => {
    console.log(data);
  });
});

req.on('error', (error) => {
  console.error(error);
});

req.end();
