' 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. 

set http = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Http")

http.BasicAuth = 1
http.Login = "API_USERNAME"
http.Password = "API_PASSWORD"

url = "https://<site>.cardconnect.com:<port>/cardconnect/rest/"
responseStr = http.QuickGetStr(url)

If (http.LastMethodSuccess = 0) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( http.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
    Response.End
End If

' If we get a 200 response status and an HTML response saying "CardConnect REST Servlet", then our credentials are correct.
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "response status code = " & http.LastStatus) & "</pre>"

Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "response string:") & "</pre>"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( responseStr) & "</pre>"

' Sample output:

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

%>
