we are interested in using NewsGator API for our News service. I am doing some prototypings right now to use our frontend Flex actionscript to call the corresponding REST API. I have difficulties to get around with the Authentication prompt by wrapping user credentials in actionscript code. I tried HTTPService and URLRequest. Tried encoding vs non-encoding. So far none is working yet. Below is a section of code, please give me some suggestions.
Thanks
----------------------
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(https://services.newsgator.com/ngws/svc/Subscription.aspx/ALocation/headlines);
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
var encoder:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
var str:String = "username:password";
var size:uint = str.length;
encoder.encode(str, 0, size-1);
var base64EncodedCredentials:String = encoder.flush();
var header1:URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader("X-NGAPIToken", "YOURTOKEN");
var header2:URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + base64EncodedCredentials);
request.requestHeaders = [header1, header2];
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
//listen for when the data loads
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, showHeadlineOnCreateComplete);
loader.load(request);
