Angular/Ionic http request ignoring https

Question

I'm trying to get an HTTP request from locationiq.org

My code is as follows:

this.http.get('https://locationiq.org/v1/reverse.php?format=json&key=9753acbde443c3&lat=' + this.appWide.lat + '&lon=' + this.appWide.long)

However, the request isn't going to the https URL, but rather performing a non-secure request. I know this since I get the error:

Mixed Content: The page at 'myurl' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure XMLHttpRequest endpoint 'http://locationiq.org/v1/reverse.php?format=json&key=9753acbde443c3&lat=31.76&lon=35.21371'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

How can I make sure that the request is on the https url?

maybe it redirects you to http, try to test it in browser and see if it change — Hussein

@Hussein when I type the url in the browser without https, it redirects to http, but when I type it with https, it stays on https. — amitairos

do ctrl+shift+i on chrome and open up network tab and make the request. You will notice that request there and can check if its doing http or https. — fastAsTortoise

Then its the issue on the service side. they have to enable https or you can also use proxy server to make this request work — fastAsTortoise

The Page you are calling at myurl has hardcoded http references like images src="http://... or stylesheets href="http:// this is a problem of the server site and should be fixed there.
