Get & Save HTTP Response as variable in Automation Jira

Question

Hi,

I'd like to make a HTTP POST to Xero to make an invoice once a transition issue triggered from Jira. However, Xero has a condition that every 30 mins, it is needed to refresh token (Authorization Bearer). My plan is to make a HTTP GET to Xero to get new token, the token will appeared on HTTP response body/header and save it as a smart value variable on Jira Automation so I can use that smart value as the new generated token.

Will it possible? do you have any example on how to get HTTP response body/header on Jira Automation?

Thank you
