Provide HttpHeaders (Authorization) for XMLPolyDataReader.setUrl()

Hi,

I’m using XMLPolyDataReader to read a PolyData XML file from a API. That works fine when the API method is accessible without authorization. But we need to provide a access token for the API by setting the Authorization field in the HTTP header.

Is that possible?

At the moment I use the XmlPolyDataReader like this:

  public addModelFromUrl(url: string) {
    const reader = this.vtkXMLPolyDataReader.newInstance();
    reader.setUrl(url).then(() => {
      const modelPolyData = reader.getOutputData(0);
      ...
    });
  }

Thanks!

I solved the problem. Encoding of the Base64 was wrong. I used now ASCII Encoding and it works now 😊

That’s great, thank you!
