To test and validate site-level credentials, you can make a GET request with no body to the base URL.

func chilkatTest() {
    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // The CardConnect REST Web Service base URL includes a protocol, host, port and servlet specification.
    // 
    // For example:
    // https://<site>.cardconnect.com:<port>/cardconnect/rest/
    // 
    // This represents an HTTPS request to the REST web service base URL. 
    // The servlet name is fixed within the application; the host and port are assigned by CardConnect. 

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    http.basicAuth = true
    http.login = "API_USERNAME"
    http.password = "API_PASSWORD"

    var url: String? = "https://<site>.cardconnect.com:<port>/cardconnect/rest/"
    var responseStr: String? = http.quickGetStr(url: url)

    if http.lastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // If we get a 200 response status and an HTML response saying "CardConnect REST Servlet", then our credentials are correct.
    print("response status code = \(http.lastStatus.intValue)")

    print("response string:")
    print("\(responseStr!)")

    // Sample output:

    // response status code = 200
    // response string:
    // <html lang="en"><body><h1>CardConnect REST Servlet</h1></body></html
