Hmm I just tried this to do that based on this tutorial here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32...

function testRest()
{

$.ajax({
url: "https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/coll...",
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
success: function() { alert('success'); },
error: function() { alert('error'); },
beforeSend: function setHeader(xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader('X-Tiggzi-Database-Id', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');
xhr.setRequestHeader('contentType', 'application/json');
}
});

}

I am getting error 500: {"code":"request","description":"database id not specified"}

Is this the right way to do it? Or can you point me to another tutorial that would make this work

No tutorial, but this might help: http://help.gotiggr.com/getting-start...

that's exactly what I am doing, it just won't work ... same thing over and over again

function testRest()
{

$.ajax({
type: "POST",
beforeSend: function setHeader(request) {
request.setRequestHeader('X-Tiggzi-Database-Id', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'),
request.setRequestHeader('X-Tiggzi-Session-Token', localStorage.getItem('_sessionToken')),
request.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
},
url: "https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/coll...",
dataType: 'json',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function() { alert('success'); },
error: function() { alert('error'); }
});
}

the problem is with the X-Tiggzi-Database-Id ... since I keep getting this error msg: {"code":"request","description":"database id not specified"}

No, not with the id. This curl command works:

curl -X GET -H "X-Tiggzi-Database-Id: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/coll...

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)

Does this have to do anything with the type of data I am passing to the X-Tiggzi-Database-Id ?

Don't use jsonp, and do a GET request.

Hi Max, the get request worked but I need to do a POST i.e create a new entry in the database...
This is what I have so far and I am getting a 400 error:

function testRest()
{

$.ajax({
type: "POST",
beforeSend: function setHeader(request) {
request.setRequestHeader('X-Tiggzi-Database-Id', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'),
request.setRequestHeader('X-Tiggzi-Session-Token', localStorage.getItem('_sessionToken')),
request.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
},
url: "https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/coll...",
data: {'message':'test', 'coachName': 'test'},
dataType: 'jsonp', // tried json here,same thing
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
},
error: function() { alert('error'); }
});
}

It has to be json, jsonp (jsonp is only for GET) request.
