Get JSON Details from the Last REST Operation

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.GetLastJsonData, which copies operation-specific diagnostic or result information from the most recently completed method into a JsonObject. Many methods produce no JSON, in which case the object is empty.

Tip: Code to parse the returned JSON can be generated with Chilkat's online tool at https://tools.chilkat.io/jsonParse.

#include <C_CkRest.h>
#include <C_CkJsonObject.h>

    {
    BOOL success;
    HCkRest rest;
    BOOL bTls;
    BOOL bAutoReconnect;
    HCkJsonObject json;
    const char *jsonStr;

    success = FALSE;

    rest = CkRest_Create();
    bTls = TRUE;
    bAutoReconnect = TRUE;
    success = CkRest_Connect(rest,"example.com",443,bTls,bAutoReconnect);
    if (success == FALSE) {
        printf("%s\n",CkRest_lastErrorText(rest));
        CkRest_Dispose(rest);
        return;
    }

    //  Copy operation-specific diagnostic or result information from the most recent method (here the
