via web
I am trying to access with the following code, but get an error:
Set xml = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
xml.Open "POST", "https://www.imified.com/api/bot/", False,"username", "password
xml.setRequestHeader "Authorization", "Basic " & base64_encode("username;password")
xml.Send "botkey=botkeygoeshere&apimethod=getAllUsers"
Response.Write xml.responseText

Hello,
I am afraid that I am not terribly familiar with ASP myself, but if you can tell me exactly what error you are getting, I may be able to determine what the cause is.

Not sure what is going on here. I have tested the getAllUsers API call and
it is working as it should. That error is returned only when the username,
password, and botkey do not validate.

And what code are you using? Do you have a sample.

We have a PHP sample on the docs page. I don't have an IIS server to test
this with but as long as your using basic auth correctly it should work.

The PHP version of the code works, but the ASP doesn't, hence my support
question.

Hi Guys,
I might be able to help -- I've put together a sample poster.
I believe the trick was setting the correct content-type. Railo? must not be able to understand the post if it's not specified.
I've attached the sample in classic asp, and i've tested it. Of course, now i feel slightly dirty as i haven't wrote new asp in about 8 years.
Cheers,
Rob.

@Victor Brief Did the code that "rob" posted help? Is this still a current issue that you are having? I will be monitoring this page and look forward to helping you with your issue.

To get the sample code to work i had to add an equals sign to the end of the string provided by the base64_encode function.
I added & "=" to the end of this line:
xml.setRequestHeader "Authorization", "Basic " & base64_encode(imifiedUsername & ":" & imifiedPassword) & "="and the code worked properly.
Thanks, Stephen

Using Classic ASP, i get a 200 response but no text going out to the phone number. Any assistance would be nice. thanks.
var objHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP");
var vURL = "https://www.imified.com/api/bot/"
var vBotAll = "botkey=MyBotKey&apimethod=send$user=MyCellNo&msg=MyMsg
objHTTP.Open("POST", vURL, false)
objHTTP.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + "MyUser:MyPassword") // This is replaced with the encode but Imified doesnt give me a user name so assuming it is my email address
objHTTP.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
objHTTP.Send(vBotAll)
objHTTP = null

Do you get back the expected xml response in the body from IMified?
