# HTTP Ingest Source This source application is an extension of out-of-the-box HTTP source application. The `http-ingest` has a function bean definition that looks like: ``` @Bean public Function sendAsUserClicks() { return value -> Long.parseLong(value); } ``` When this function bean is enabled, the incoming `String` value is converted to `Long` value. When sending user clicks count as `Long` we can enable this function for the `http-ingest` while the same application can be used for sending the user region `String` value. To build this application: ./mvnw clean package
