Hi,
​
I am hoping to use a CF action to submit a URL that spins off a web service, but NOT to have to wait for the response.
I've come up short on this, having looked at cURL, file_get_contents and other methods.
Is there are way to do this out of the box with CF? Open to any suggestion!
​
Thanks.

No and according to Stackoverflow it's not something PHP does "out of the box" either.

Pretty sure you should wait for a response though, otherwise how do you know the data submitted? That the URL you're sending to isn't down?
