'  Connect to the REST server.  The 3rd argument enables TLS (use 1 for HTTPS on port 443),
'  and the 4th enables automatic reconnection if the connection is dropped between requests.
Dim bTls As Long
bTls = 1
Dim bAutoReconnect As Long
bAutoReconnect = 1
success = rest.Connect("example.com",443,bTls,bAutoReconnect)
If (success = 0) Then
    Debug.Print rest.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

Dim responseText As String
responseText = rest.FullRequestNoBody("GET","/api/status")
If (rest.LastMethodSuccess = 0) Then
    Debug.Print rest.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.Print responseText

'  Close the connection.  The argument is the maximum number of milliseconds to wait for the
'  close to complete.
Dim bDisconnected As Long
bDisconnected = rest.Disconnect(200)
If (bDisconnected <> 1) Then
    Debug.Print "The disconnect did not complete within the wait time."
End If
