I might have looked too much and gone blind…

But is there a way to login to a website with https - so I can post a URL via HTTPS GET?

I would like to “Command” my Axis Camera station to start recording at specific times - but it requires HTTPS login.

thanks

thanks - I am trying to get it to work but could use some additional help…

I have made a GET (A20) request as per advanced options

{  
“hostname”:“192.168.1.10”,  
“port”:“55756”,  
“method”:“GET”,  
“protocol”:“https:”,  
“auth”:“xxx:yyy”,  
“path”:"/Acs/Api/TriggerFacade/ActivateDeactivateTrigger?{triggerName:Record\_6115,deactivateAfterSeconds:5}"  
}

But it gets rejected with “Promise was rejected with a falsy value”

Anyone can help?

thanks!
