I tried with a few example files and https didn't seem to work. Does it need to be https?

Unfortunately yes:

Https sites encode their data. The XML parser has no input for certificate nor private key (unlike the Pachube/Cosm reader for ex.). Therefore it cannot read secure pages.

I see. Well, maybe something to add in the future, Luis?

Meanwhile using a diffenrent API (http://www.earthtools.org/) solved my problem.

Thank you all.

This was an easy fix ;)

Will be available in the next update, probably by the the coming weekend.  If you want it before then, I can send it on a case by case basis.  Message me here.

Best,

Luis
