There are 2 problems here. The description is non standard and misleading and the /api string is stripped from the URL that it indicates it will use in that URL. Look.
(lldb) po [[NSURL URLWithString:@"/login" relativeToURL:self.sharedData.webServicesURL] absoluteURL] https://home-qa.mrcooper.com/login (lldb) po [NSURL URLWithString:@"/login" relativeToURL:self.sharedData.webServicesURL] /login -- https://home-qa.mrcooper.com/api See how in the top output that /api is stripped from the URL that it will use while it is displayed in the output on the bottom? Damn misleading.
