I've been trying to figure out how to get the arduino uno wifi rev.2 to do a GET request to the MongoDB database. The endpoint I'm trying to use is:
https://data.mongodb-api.com/app/data-nhwaq/endpoint/getAll
This endpoint just responds with all my data in json format from activities collection. It should work for anyone who just pastes it on their browser since I've made the function of the endpoint allow anyone to get data without any authentication. I've made it work on postman below:
I've looked at other topics like my own and I still can't seem to figure out whether it's my request headers, the microcontroller, or the database acting up. The code I'm using is the modified wifi web client file from the WiFiNiNa library
/*
Web client
This sketch connects to a website (http://www.google.com)
using the WiFi module.
This example is written for a network using WPA encryption. For
WEP or WPA, change the WiFi.begin() call accordingly.
