      @Christoph-Hart I tested the server with no success...

      This:

      // Prepare the parameters
      local parameters =
      {
          "request":      requestType,
          "email":        emailLbl.get("text"),
          "serial_key":   serialLbl.get("text"),
          "product_id":   productId,
          "instance":     instance
      };
      
      // Make the call
      Server.callWithGET(SerialNumbersAPI, parameters, function(status, response)    // SerialNumbersAPI is my sub...
      {
          Console.print(status);
          Console.print(trace(response));
      });
      

      Throws that

      Interface:! Expected '{' or '[': "1"
      Interface: 500
      Interface: {
        "error": "Expected '{' or '[': \"1\""
      }
      

      It shouldn't be because of the baseURL, subURL, or parameters because it worked before with my API...

        Do you return a plain text? Because it expects JSON data

          @Christoph-Hart What do you mean? the response is an object:

          Server.callWithGET(SerialNumbersAPI, parameters, function(status, response)
              {
                  Console.print(status);
                  Console.print(response);
              });
          
          Interface:! Expected '{' or '[': "1"
          Interface: 500
          Interface: Object 0x423cc0

            And:

                Server.callWithGET(SerialNumbersAPI, parameters, function(status, response)
                {
                    
                });
            

            gives

            Interface:! Expected '{' or '[': "1"

              Well the error message is wrapped in an object, but your actual server response throws a JSON parsing error.

                  Here's my habitual call
                  https://www.studio427audio.com/?wc-api=serial-numbers-api&request=check&...

                  here's what I set

                  Server.setBaseURL("https://www.studio427audio.com");
                  const var SerialNumbersAPI = "?wc-api=serial-numbers-api";    // subURL

                    That's not the sub-URL these are the GET arguments. Your sub URL is empty if you call the domain directly (haven't checked whether this works though, in my experience I've always called a sub URL). The parameter object should be

                    const var p =
                    {
                        "wc-api": "serial-numbers-api",
                        "request": "check"
                    };
                    
                    Server.setBaseURL("https://www.studio427audio.com");
                    Server.callWithGET("/", p, function(status, response)
                    {
                    
                    });
                    

                    But what does the server return? If it's just a plain old text, it won't work so you need to make sure your server returns a JSON file.

                      @Christoph-Hart I noticed in your example, the call adds a question mark at the end of the subURL.
                      I don't know if it's added or not to my url, but I know I shouldn't have one...

                          This works here:

                          Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 500);
                          
                          const var p =
                          {
                              "wc-api": "serial-numbers-api",
                              "request": "check"
                          };
                          
                          reg r;

                          Server.callWithGET("/", p, function(status, response)
                          {
                              r = response;
                          });

                            @Christoph-Hart Yeah! Working! :)
                            I didn't know the api is par of GET arguments, though it was the sub...
                            It works like a charm! Thanks!

                              Yes, the GET arguments will be embedded into the URL and POST data will be sent along with it. If your server supports it I'd recommend using POST data for sending authentification information as the other one is visible throughout the communication (which makes your SSL certificate pointless).

                                      @Christoph-Hart Did someone tinkered with the File APIs?
                                      I tried getFolder and findFiles with no success.
                                      I put a *.js on the Desktop and used the location wildcard but findFiles returns an empty array...

                                      FileSystem.getFolder("Desktop");
                                      var fileList = FileSystem.findFiles("Desktop", "*.js", true)
                                      

                                      My end goal is to dump an encrypted file (but I don't see a dump file method except for the ol'dumpJSON of course)

                                        Use FileSystem.Desktop as argument.

                                        And your end goal is one line of code :)

                                        FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.Desktop).getChildFile("license.dat").writeEncryptedObject({"key": "1234"}, "1haDUHNEK1($NR");
