Getting the following response message
{“message”:“Missing Mashape application key. Go to http://docs.mashape.com/api-keys to learn how to get your API application key.”} from my javascript function
I’m not sure if I’m formatting the header data wrong or what the deal is, any pointers are appreciated
function getQuote(){
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open(“POST”, “https://timshim-quotes-v1.p.mashape.com/quotes”, false);
request.setRequestHeader(“Content-type”,“X-Mashape-Key: KEY_GOES_HERE”,“Accept: application/json”);
request.send();
txtOutput.value = request.responseText;
}

Hi,
I changed my call to GET as follows:
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open(“GET”, “https://timshim-quotes-v1.p.mashape.com/quotes”, false);
request.setRequestHeader(“Content-type”,“X-Mashape-Key: KEY GOES HERE”,“Accept: application/json”);
request.send();
txtOutput.value = request.statusText;
The “request.statusText” now shows as Unauthorized
Do I need to pass the application name I used when I requested my key? Any other pointers are approaciated.
Regards
Try using a GET instead of a POST.
