[QUOTE="digitaldrew, post: 184737, member: 41941"] I don't know if this will be much help, but they put a small example on [URL="https://www.yay.com/blog/api/beginners-guide-part-1/"]this page[/URL] which uses the same endpoint as my initial GET (/authenticated) and they include a few other things in their header (although they never specify it's required)..Here is what theirs looks like: [CODE] X-Auth-Reseller: reseller X-Auth-User: user X-Auth-Password: password Host: api.yay.com Connection: close User-Agent: MyAPIApp 1.0 [/CODE] So I decided to add the others into my code: [CODE] Using webClient As New System.Net.WebClient webClient.Headers("User-Agent") = "MyAPIApp 1.0" webClient.Headers("Content-Type") = "application/json" webClient.Headers("Host") = hostName webClient.Headers("Connection") = "close" webClient.Headers("X-Auth-Reseller") = txtxAuthReseller.Text webClient.Headers("X-Auth-User") = txtxAuthUser.Text webClient.Headers("X-Auth-Password") = txtxAuthPassword.Text Dim result As String = webClient.UploadString("https://" & hostName & "/dom/name-server-group", "{""group_name"" : ""Default Name Servers"", ""is_default"" : true, ""name_servers"" : [""" & txtNS1.Text & """, """ & txtNS2.Text & """]}") MsgBox(result) End Using [/CODE] When adding the Connection header I now get the follow error instead of a 500 Internal Server Error: [B]An exception occurred during a WebClient request.[/B] Once I remove the connection part, it's back to 500 Internal Server Error..
