# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# First get our previously obtained OAuth2 access token.
jsonToken = chilkat2.JsonObject()
success = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/qb-access-token.json")

rest = chilkat2.Rest()

# Connect to the REST server.
bTls = True
port = 443
bAutoReconnect = True
success = rest.Connect("sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)

sbAuth = chilkat2.StringBuilder()
sbAuth.Append("Bearer ")
sbAuth.Append(jsonToken.StringOf("access_token"))
rest.Authorization = sbAuth.GetAsString()

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Note: The above code to setup the initial REST connection
# can be done once.  After connecting, any number of REST calls can be made.
# If the connection is lost, the next REST method call will automatically
# reconnect if needed.
