Hehe. That’s exactly what I did. The reply was: can you please do it the way we suggest? I figured, well, if they insist… But then it turned out not to be so easy. Hence this thread. :-) Anyway, this is what Charles tells me about the curl request: " GET /api/v1/existing_user HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: curl/7.37.1 Host: example.com Accept: */* Accept-Encoding: gzip Authorization: Basic blablabla Accept-Language: nl, en-us Content-Length: 122 Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded <user><account_attributes><email>u...@fantastic.com</email><password>youllneverguess</password></account_attributes></user> " And this is what Charles tells me about the request through NSURLRequest: " GET /api/v1/existing_user HTTP/1.1 Host: example.com Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded User-Agent: TheApp/2.3.2 CFNetwork/711.3.18 Darwin/14.4.0 Connection: keep-alive Accept: */* Accept-Language: nl, en-us Authorization: Basic blablabla Accept-Encoding: gzip Content-Length: 122 “ As you can see, the content body is not there. > Two discrepancies: The request sent by NSURLSession is missing the > Content-Type header, and has an Accept-Encoding header (which shouldn't be > necessary because NSURLSession handles compressed responses for you.) I’ve corrected the code to ensure the same headers are sent as per the curl call, and I’ve tried different combinations of headers, but all to no avail. > Sending a request body with a GET is unusual, but I have no reason to think > NSURLSession won't do it if you tell it to. Well, from my tests, I’m starting to think this is exactly the problem, based on the output I get from Charles. It would seem it won’t do it. -António _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
