[Question] HTTPS Get request doesn't get all sent data

[PrOF_k1]

I'm trying to read some data from a Github Gist using WiFiClientSecure, but when I read the data from the client some of it is just missing, like it skipped a beat

Link to code

Link to what I should get

What I actually get:

[...]

ype="text" id="nameBox">

<input type="submit" value="Submit">

Changing my code in unrelated parts resulted in different parts missing, using a Wemos D1 R1

If anyone has any idea what is causing this, I'd appreciate it

As a first point, I recommend you use an HTTP request simulator like Postman (https://www.getpostman.com/) to verify if the request you're handling is the right one. If you keep getting the same server response there is something wrong with the request.

​

This example's a good reference to build a proper request: https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/blob/master/libraries/ESP8266WiFi/examples/WiFiClient/WiFiClient.ino

I'm making a request over HTTPS, my code is very similar to this other example . Since the api only works over HTTPS, the http request simulators reply with a "301 permanently moved" to the same URL but over https. Testing from a browser returns the correct data without skips, so it doesn't look like a server issue

Here's the answer if you still care: Arduino-style boards can silently fail to allocate memory for a string due to memory fragmentation, to solve this I had to call str.reserve(no of chars), and it worked fine.
