Am I doing something wrong here? when I use exactly the same details in postman I get a response with the company profile as supplied from companies house and the API, but when I follow the guidelines for basic authentication (Basic access authentication - Wikipedia) in Backendless, theres no data in the body of the response.
When I check the cURL Backendless is encoding the username (and password, although the service doesnt use one) to base 64 as per the standard.
so, is it me, again?
