Currently, the HTTP request for connection to an IHS Global Insight Database looks like this:
Code: Select all
CONNECT magapi.ihsglobalinsight.com:443 HTTP/1.1
Host: magapi.ihsglobalinsight.com
Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive
Notice the User-Agent is not part of that header as it normally is when performing other remote operations in EViews like checking for updates:
Code: Select all
GET http://www.eviews.com/EViewsMsgs/msgs.xml HTTP/1.1
Cache-Control: no-cache
Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive
Pragma: no-cache
Accept: text/*
User-Agent: EViews64/10.00
Host: www.eviews.com
