SharePoint REST API

I'm trying to connect to a SharePoint list using the REST API:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libra...

The site is [url=https://...]https://...[/url].

I'm not having any luck.

How would I pass a domain\username and a password to this API?

Could you create a SharePoint example in your documentation under 'Some Examples of Connecting to Specific Mobile APIs'?

Thanks,

Jim

I didn't see any docs on authentication... do you know where such information is posted?

Is this something that Ziggzi can do?

Please keep in mind that this is accessing a secure URL (https:).

Thanks,

Jim

Tiggzi is an app builder (IDE), you get a standard HTML5 mobile app, and you can use any REST service.

I looked at the links you provided, but I still didn't see exact information on how to authenticate. The second links talks that a service could be configured to work with four different authentication options.

The first link shows an example but there is no authentication information. I'm guessing the way the service is deployed in the particular case - you don't need to authenticate.

If you can provide a link to a working service, I'll be happy to try it.

Maz,

I really must apologize. I am not a web developer or SharePoint, so I'm not much help. I'm forced to find a mobile solution in this situation.

I'm working on getting something for you.

Please email me a contact email for any test sites.

I'm not aware of any test sites that would host these services. Why don't you ping me at max at tiggzi dot com.
