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

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Http")
set http = CreateObject("Chilkat.Http")

' Setting the AuthToken property causes the "Authorization: Bearer <token>" header to be added to each request.
' This applies to any of the Chilkat method calls that send a GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, or anything else..
http.AuthToken = "ya29.a0Ad52N3_4P_LpZS......WZr44LJ6w017"

' For example:
responseStr = http.QuickGetStr("https://www.chilkatsoft.com/helloWorld.xml")
outFile.WriteLine(responseStr)

' The following HTTP request is sent in the above call.

' GET /helloWorld.xml HTTP/1.1
' Host: www.chilkatsoft.com
' Accept: */*
' Accept-Encoding: gzip
' Authorization: Bearer ya29.a0Ad52N3_4P_LpZS......WZr44LJ6w017
