RFC3161 Timestamp Client - Fetch from Timestamp Authority (TSA) and Verify

See more HTTP Examples

Sends an RFC 3161 timestamp request to a TSA (Timestamp Authority) server and validates the timestamp token response.

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.
