Hello,  
i just read the application note for the REST API and it says that data is transmitted via HTTP from client to server.  
Is it also in planning to use HTTP **S**?  
I dont know if this is a real problem but all websites are changing from http to https as http allows to read and also change the transmitted data.

Thanks

best regards  
JG
