Rails - May 2010 - Reading an API Server Response

Hello,

I am trying to debug an API.  Towards the end of the process, the
remote server sends me a request.  I respond to that request with:
render :text => my_response, :status => 200.  I am trying to find out
how to read the remote server''s response.

So basically this is a three part cycle.  How do I access the third
part?

1. Remote Server sends a request
2. I respond with text and a status of 200
3. Remote Server responds with the results of the transaction.

How do I access this third response?  I specifically would like to log
the body of the response so that I can read it and figure out what is
going on through the api calls.

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

There''s no such thing as a response to a response. #3 would be a
second request, assuming that the remote server is programmed to
initiate one. And in that case, presumably you''ll know what URL
it''s
requesting, right?
