' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

' This example assumes we previously obtained an access token
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.OAuth2")
set oauth2 = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.OAuth2")
oauth2.AccessToken = "FACEBOOK-ACCESS-TOKEN"

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Rest")
set rest = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Rest")

' Connect to Facebook and send the following GET request:

' GET /v2.7/me HTTP/1.1
' Host: graph.facebook.com
bAutoReconnect = 1
success = rest.Connect("graph.facebook.com",443,1,bAutoReconnect)
If (success <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( rest.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
    Response.End
End If

' Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access key)
success = rest.SetAuthOAuth2(oauth2)

    Response.End
End If

Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( responseJson) & "</pre>"

' The responseJson looks like this:
' {"name":"John Doe","id":"10111011320111110"}
