CloudScript supports calling REST API via its pre-defined method. Please refer to this section Intermediate Overview: Globals and advanced arguments to check the use of predefined variable http, and you can find the following http.request sample in the first CloudScript revision. You can follow the sample and test calling Epic Games Store SDK API from CloudScript by yourself.

// This is a simple example of making a web request to an external HTTP API.
handlers.makeHTTPRequest = function (args, context) {
    var headers = {
        "X-MyCustomHeader": "Some Value"
    };
    
    var body = {
        input: args,
        userId: currentPlayerId,
        mode: "foobar"
    };


    var url = "http://httpbin.org/status/200";
    var content = JSON.stringify(body);
    var httpMethod = "post";
    var contentType = "application/json";


    // The pre-defined http object makes synchronous HTTP requests
    var response = http.request(url, httpMethod, content, contentType, headers);
    return { responseContent: response };
};
