You have to use a plugin that accesses the routes of the iconic server, and send a post request to the database (ie, you're posting you're confNum and lastName). It's like a Hash (if you know the Ruby programming language), or basically, keys with values. They keys being confNum and lastName, with the value for each being your actual confirmation number and your last name.
You can use something called Postman, an extension you can install in your Chrome browser.
Here is the link to it.
Install it. Open it.
Where it says: "Enter request URL here", paste in this link:
https://preorder.verizonwireless.com/iconic/iconic/screens/IconicSearch.do
On the right of where you entered the above link, there will be a drop down of options, I think it is set to GET. Go ahead and change it to POST.
Below that, are 3 clickable buttons: form-data, x-www-form-urlencoded, and raw. Go ahead and click on x-www-form-urlencoded.
Below this, you will see what I had mentioned earlier, fields for Key and Value.
In the first one, put in: confNum for the Key. In the value field, put in your actual confirmation number.
In the Key field below that one, put in lastName for Key. Then put in your last name in the Value field.
Double check everything.
Hit send.
This will load a bunch of code. It's XML. It's ugly. We don't like XML. We like JSON.
Look for the two buttons side by side, one says JSON, the other is XML, which is what it will currently be set at. Go ahead and click on the JSON button. This will make the code much easier for you to read.
And there you go, that's all the info everyone else is seeing, have fun! I hope this helped for those who haven't gotten Iconic to work for them.
I feel like I should be doing a git commit now...heh.
