    // To use HTTP Basic authentication:

    if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false) {
        System.out.println(http.lastErrorText());

    System.out.println("Response status code: " + http.get_LastStatus());

    System.out.println(jsonResponse);

    // Output:

    //   "authenticated": true,
