iOS FlickrKit: err code="95" msg="SSL is required"

I am developing a photo sharing application on iOS that shares pictures on various social networks including Flickr. In order to authorise the app and to upload photos on a Flickr photo-stream I use FlickrKit.

After successfully authorising the app I try to post the selected picture with the following code:

UIImage *img = self.itemsToShare[currentItem];

    NSDictionary *uploadArgs = @{@"title": @"Test Photo", @"description": @"A Test Photo via FlickrKitDemo", @"is_public": @"0", @"is_friend": @"0", @"is_family": @"0", @"hidden": @"2"};

    self.uploadOp = [[FlickrKit sharedFlickrKit] uploadImage:img args:uploadArgs completion:^(NSString *imageID, NSError *error) {
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
            if (error) {
                UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error" message:error.localizedDescription delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles: nil];
                [alert show];
            } else {
                NSString *msg = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Uploaded image ID %@", imageID];
                UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Done" message:msg delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles: nil];
                [alert show];
            }

        });
    }];

My problem is that the following error occurs:

2014-07-02 10:16:23.710 myApp[805:3507] <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<rsp stat="fail">
    <err code="95" msg="SSL is required" />
</rsp>

Does anyone have an idea where do I set an SSL connection for FlickrKit?

Thank you very much,

Granit

Simply you need to replace http to https in flickr API, due to secure connection issue.

all you need to update is the URL, from HTTP to HTTPS: 

https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photosets.getPhotos&api_key=.............&photoset_id=...............&format=rest

worked for me!

During my research I saw that the Flickr API is now SSL-Only form June 27th 2014. The fix is to change upload URL in FKImageUploadNetworkOperation.m file to:

NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://up.flickr.com/services/upload/"]];
    [request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
