HTTPS issue

Closed this issue 10 years ago · 2 comments

I am unable to make HTTPS requests using this library although HTTP requests work fine. Is there going to be support for HTTPS or is there a work around or even an alternate library?

I really wanted to connect my Spark Core to Firebase, if this worked, it would be awesome!!

Unfortunately the MCU would struggle with SSL, so if you need that you would need a more powerful platform (I hear rumours one might be coming from Spark soon!).

Awesome I can't wait!

Well a work around for this issue is making an HTTP request to your own server, then having it make the API call to which ever HTTPS service your want and then return the data back respectively, although this is a longer process, it still works.
