winhttp

I'd be extremely grateful for any kind of help that may help me resolving the problem. From Excel VBA code I need to download & parse CSV file from HTTPS site https://redmine.itransition.com/ . I try to use WinHTTP to get the file. However, I can't understand why authentication does not work. Here is the piece of related code: TargetURL = "https://redmine.itransition.com/projects/pmct/time_entries.csv" Set HTTPReq = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1") HTTPReq.Option(4) = 13056 ' WinHttpRequestOption_SslErrorIgnoreFlags 13056: ignore all err, 0: accept no err HTTPReq.Open "GET",

I'm using WinHTTP in Access 2007 VBA to fetch some list of items requiring a cookie login credential account . First I login through https://www.example.com/login.php with this: Dim strCookie As String, strResponse As String, _ strUrl As String ' Dim xobj As Object ' Set xobj = New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest ' strUrl = "https://www.example.com/login.php" xobj.Open "POST", strUrl, False xobj.SetRequestHeader "User-Agent", "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)" xobj.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" xobj.Send "username=johndoe2&password=mypassword" '

I am using ServerXMLHTTP to perform an HTTP POST. The response returned is a redirect (specifically 303 See Other). ServerXMLHTTP is automatically following this redirect but this is causing an authentication failure as is not propagating the Authorization header of the original request. Is there a way I can prevent the automatic redirection (or alternatively ensure that the Authorization header is resent)? ServerXMLHTTP does not support interception of redirects (see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 308607 ). However WinHTTP can be used in its place and this does contain a configurable

PayPal sandbox just recently restricted to TLS 1.2 connection. This makes our site stop working with PayPal sandbox although it stills work with the production PayPal. In the future the production PayPal will have the same restriction. We're using classic ASP and Microsoft WinHTTP.WinHTTPRequest.5.1 component for communication with PayPal. Here's the code below. objHttp.StatusText returns "Bad Request". We're on Windows Server 2008 R2. I tried to use MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0 instead, but it only works on my Windows 8.1 development machine, not on our Windows Server 2008 R2. Although MSXML2

As the next step for my happily solved problem ( Not understanding why WinHTTP does NOT authenticate certain HTTPS resource ) I need to prettily parse obtained CSV. At the moment I use the following solution: If HTTPReq.Status = 200 Then If FSO.FileExists(CSV_Path) = True Then FSO.DeleteFile (CSV_Path) Set FileStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream") FileStream.Open FileStream.Type = 1 FileStream.Write HTTPReq.responseBody FileStream.SaveToFile (CSV_Path) FileStream.Close ActiveWorkbook.Connections("Redmine Timelog").Refresh ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable_RM").PivotCache.Refresh End If That

I'm trying to save a file from https password protected site using WinHTTP. Here's the code: Sub SaveFileFromURL() Dim FileNum As Long Dim FileData() As Byte Dim WHTTP As Object fileUrl = "https://www.website.com/dir1/dir2/file.xls" filePath = "C:\myfile.xls" myuser = "username" mypass = "password" Set WHTTP = CreateObject("WinHTTP.WinHTTPrequest.5.1") WHTTP.Open "GET", fileUrl, False WHTTP.SetCredentials myuser, mypass, HTTPREQUEST_SETCREDENTIALS_FOR_SERVER WHTTP.Send FileData = WHTTP.ResponseBody Set WHTTP = Nothing FileNum = FreeFile Open filePath For Binary Access Write As #FileNum Put
