I am making an AJAX request to a REST API that is not under my control. I was getting cross-origin error because of which I set the dataType to "jsonp". But, now it is throwing a script error saying "Unexpected token :". When I look at the Network tab of Chrome tools, I can see the request being placed and the response getting back. This is how the response looks like:
{"uniqID":"1427907503","membersID":"1245678","isTypeAuth":null,"secretKey":"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"}
Now, I am thinking this is probably because the REST API itself doesn't send back JSONP. How can I resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance.
