Backend (Everlive) login and query problems

[AlexFStop]

I'm a first time Telerik App Builder and Everlive user. I created an Everlive Content Type and defined some fields and created 7 records. Next I tried to login and query but I got an error both times. The code is below (with the API key, login and password changed). I based it on my understanding of some of the examples in the documentation.
For the login attempt I got a "Invalid API key - code 607". For the query I got a "Not found - code 600".
I have a feeling that I am just not connecting to the Content Type (named "JOAD_ImagesDB") properly (although the debugger shows the return value as non-NULL), so the login failed (though I used the name and password of the only user defined for JOAD_ImagesDB) and then no data was retrieved by the query.
Obviously I am doing something wrong, but after hours of struggling I can't figure out what. Can anyone suggest something?
BTW, I am not using Kendo because the app is a very simple one and I don't need the Kendo capabilities.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone may offer.

var el = new Everlive({
        apiKey: '123456', 
        url: '//api.everlive.com/v1',
        scheme: 'http'
}); 
Everlive.$.Users.login('abc', // username
      'def') // password
    .then(function (data) { // success callback, this returns the token that we can store to avoid re-authenticating this user!
        alert(JSON.stringify(data));
    },
    function(error) { // error callback
        alert(JSON.stringify(error));
    });

var JOAD_data = el.data("JOAD_ImagesDB");
var query = new Everlive.Query();
query.where().lt("Image_Date",LastDate).done().select("Image","Image_Description","Copyright_Owner").take(7);    
JOAD_data.get(query) // filter
    .then(function(data){
        alert(JSON.stringify(data));
    },
    function(error){
        alert(JSON.stringify(error));
    });

Hello Alex,

Thank you for contacting us!

Could you please try with the following initialization of the 'Everlive' object:

var el = new Everlive({
    apiKey: 'api-key',
    url: '//api.everlive.com/v1/',
    scheme: 'https'
});

Please note, the forward slash at the end of the url (this parameter could not be set explicitly).
Also, you can set the scheme to 'https'.

Please, let us know if this works for you.

Regards,

Worked like a charm. Thanks a million.

Hello Alex,

We are glad that this solved the issue.

In general, it would be better to omit the 'url' parameter when initializing the 'Everlive' object, as it is already set by default in the SDK.
