Bing Maps Isochrone Request Returns Callback URL Using HTTP Protocol (Not HTTPS)

Question

Hi,

When making, for example, the following isochrone request using the HTTPS protocol:

https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Routes/IsochronesAsync?waypoint=47.101077,-119.247147&maxDistance=10&distanceUnit=mi&optimize=distance&travelMode=driving&key=MyKey...

The returned callbackUrl uses the HTTP protocol:

http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Routes/IsochronesAsyncCallback?key=MyKey...

Which the browser (Microsoft Edge) rejects with the following error:

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://dev.my-site.com/mapping' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Routes/IsochronesAsyncCallback?key=MyKey...'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

Am I doing something wrong in my request, or should the callbackUrl be using a matching protocol to the original request?

Thanks,

Ken

Hi Ken,

I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.

Better to raise a ticket at Bing support using the appropriate channel.

In the meantime, you can add values in the following flag:

edge://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure

You can add the following URL as it is HTTP.

http://dev.virtualearth.net/

Do note that it is a temporary measure not a full-proof solutions. Maps API support would have a better answer for you.

Hope that helps, and rely on us for any further inquiries. All the best.
