-- This example assumes the Chilkat HTTP API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

-- Insert your Bearer token here:
local accessToken = "VOICEBASE_TOKEN"

local http = chilkat.Http.new()

-- Add the access (bearer) token to the request, which is a header
-- having the following format:
-- Authorization: Bearer <userAccessToken>
local sbAuth = chilkat.StringBuilder.new()
sbAuth:append("Bearer ")
sbAuth:append(accessToken)
http:set_request_header("Authorization", sbAuth:get_as_string())

local strJson = http:quick_get_str("https://apis.voicebase.com/v2-beta/media")
if not http.last_method_success then
    print(http.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- The response should be JSON, even if an error.
local json = chilkat.JsonObject.new()
json:load(strJson)

if http.last_status ~= 200 then

-- See the sample JSON response below..

-- Iterate over the JSON like this:

local dtObj = chilkat.DtObj.new()
