Error Testing My Data on api.parse.com Using Their Keys

I am new to Parse.com and am trying to test the data I have created on their platform but it is not going through. I have followed the book am reading and it's time to test the data I have created on Parse but it's not working. I am supposed to type the following address into the browser and receive all the data I have created under the "Products" class as JSON in the browser. I am doing it to test it if it is working.

https://<appID>:javascript-keys=<jsKEY>@api.parse.com/1/classes/Products

appID is replaced with my Parse-applicationID and jsKEY is replaced with my Parse-JavascriptKEY. When I enter the above address into the browser, a dialog box appears asking me to enter my username and password. I typed my www.Parse.com username and password but its not working.

First, I receive a confirmation box with the following message:

You are about to log in to the site "api.parse.com" with the username "<appID>".

appID is the application ID from parse.com

I will click OK and then I receive a prompt dialog box with two input fields for username and password. I enter my parse.com username and password but then it does not work. I also try to use the <appID> as the username and with the parse.com password but still it does not work.

The dialog box means that the authentication failed, so they ask for your username and your password again. The URL scheme is https://user:[email protected]/1/classes/Products. So when the dialog ask for your username and password it actually ask for your appID as username, and your jsKey (with the string "javascript-key=" in front of it) as password.

The issue here is that you are adding a s at the end of key in the string javascript-key=.
