I’m using the RestKit iOS package to allow a user to pull info from an account they have. The code below works perfectly the first time through. However, if I attempt to use a different username and password a second time, it just loads the information from the first mapping call. Furthermore, when the request is sent the second time, it returns the data unreasonably quickly which leads me to believe it is just using cached data. I’ve searched high and low for any way to reset restkit (and its cache) and none of them have worked. Here’s my code:
- (void)login {
RKObjectMapping* mapping = [RKObjectMapping mappingForClass:[MyClass class]];
[mapping mapKeyPathsToAttributes:
@"Data.MailboxId", @"MailboxId",
@"Data.value1", @"Value1",
@"Data.value2", @"Value2",
nil];
[RKObjectManager objectManagerWithBaseURL:@"https://my.site.com"];
[RKObjectManager sharedManager].client.username = username.text;
[RKObjectManager sharedManager].client.password = password.text;
[[RKObjectManager sharedManager] loadObjectsAtResourcePath:@"/api/v1.0/?format=json" objectMapping:mapping delegate:self];
}
And here’s my log from RestKit:

The answer was surprisingly simple. I just added the following line of code to my request to force basic HTTP authentication and it all works:
