Hey Mike, can you show me how you got it working. The code including the header with auth. You can put xxxx’s in place of you auth.

Thanks

@jjak, are you attempting this with Flash Player or AIR? Because you can’t set the `Authorization` header in Flash Player. But the way to do it would be to use a [URLRequestHeader](http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/URLRequestHeader.html) along with a URLRequest.

Yes, trying with Air. I worked on this in the past and couldn’t get it to work. I will need to go back to my file to show how I had it written.

It also depends on which AIR sandbox you’re in, I think. It’s still restricted in some.

I’m on a phone now so I can’t easily write or test code.
