Dear community,

I'm experimenting with the HTTP-node. I've already managed to get some wheather forecasts, but that was pretty easy.
Now I'm trying for something more difficult: the Harvest API. I'd like to extract some info about my timesheets.
I can't seem to get this to work, though, based on the examples on the Harvest API on GitHub.
The main reason is that all examples are based on Python, Ruby, PHP etc. (and I don't have the faintest idea about these;-)

The closest example to the http-request Lavastorm expects is the one using CURL:

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/xml' -H 'Accept: application/xml' -u "user@example.com:password" https://subdomain.harvestapp.com/account/who_am_i

I have tried to convert this to a http-request using my own credentials, but it doesn't work. The most response I get is that I'm using an unsupported browser...

Who can offer some help? Surely someone has gone through the same process? ;-)

thanks in advance & greetings from The Netherlands,

Bart.

I did something similar to this. I had to make it a two-step process. The first HTTP node does the login itself, gathers the returned Session Cookies, and passed them to a second HTTP node that then reads the actual page I wanted to pick up.

Oohh, that sounds both interesting �nd a bit difficult ;-)
You don't, by any chance, have an example?
More in general, is there a standard method to 'translate' this curl, php, ruby or python code into a single-line http-request? To me, that's the part I find most difficult because no example code is then available.
thanks!
