More specifically, I am looking at the Web Services of Commission Junction (http://help.cj.com/en/web_services/web_services.htm#Commission_Detail_Service.htm) and the Authorization key is supposed to be part of the "Header" for the request.
Would I be able to send the request with just a url? For example (using the URI from their website): https://publisher-lookup.api.cj.com/v2/joined-publisher-lookup?Authorization=[developer key]&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cj.com
Also, if anybody is familiar with Pentaho Data Integration v4.3 (PDI or Kettle), help with making this API call using PDI would be much appreciated (that is ultimately what I am trying to achieve).
Thank you!
For Firefox, there is an add-on to make a REST API call with headers: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/modify-headers/
And Commission Junction outlines how to use it: http://www.cj.com/webservices/quick-start-guide
