i need to send an HTTP request, I can do that but my API in Backendless requires application-id and secret-key in HTTP Request Header. Can you help how to add it into my code? Thanks
let urlString = "https://api.backendless.com/v1/data/Pub"
let session = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let url = NSURL(string: urlString)!
session.dataTaskWithURL(url){(data: NSData?,response: NSURLResponse?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
if let responseData = data
{
do{
let json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(responseData, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.AllowFragments)
print(json)
}catch{
print("Could not serialize")
}
}
}.resume()
Swift 5+, 4.1+ and Swift 3
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.setValue("secret-keyValue", forHTTPHeaderField: "secret-key")
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in }
Swift 2.2
Wrap your NSURL
into NSMutableRequest
like this:
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
And then use this method to add header to your request
object:
request.setValue("secret-keyValue", forHTTPHeaderField: "secret-key")
And instead of using dataTaskWithURL:
use dataTaskWithRequest:
method.
session.dataTaskWithRequest(request){
(data: NSData?,response: NSURLResponse?, error: NSError?) -> Void in }
