Image Bing API stopped working with Swift 2 Xcode 7

Question

In Xcode 6 this was working:

let url = NSURL(string: "https://api.datamarket.azure.com/Bing/Search/Image?$format=json&Query='\(keywords2)'")
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url!)
request.HTTPMethod = "POST"
request.setValue("Basic \(base64LoginString)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization")

Client received real data with image information. But in Xcode 7 I receive from Bing an error:

The authorization type you provided is not supported. Only Basic and OAuth are supported

Any idea what is going on? As you see I use Basic authentication. With external HTTP client it works, get back real data.

Put the following properties block inside of the main properties dictionary (under the first ).

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
<key>NSExceptionDomains</key>
<dict>
<key>www.yourwebservicedomain.com</key>
<dict>
<key>NSExceptionAllowsInsecureHTTPLoads</key>
<true/>
<key>NSExceptionMinimumTLSVersion</key>
<string>TLSv1.1</string>
