Build with AI

Write the code that calls the BeMap API operation "Currency rates · codes": GET https://bemap.benomad.com/bgis/service/currency/1.0/codes

- Authenticate with HTTP Basic: the BeMap account as the user name, the API key as the password. Do not follow redirects: a 302 means the credentials were not sent.
- Use only the fields the reference lists: BeMap ignores an unknown field name without an error, so a misspelt field configures nothing.
- A 400 with "Access Denied" means the account lacks the Currency or EV smart routing option; a 401, a wrong account or key.

Reference, with every field and what each value means: https://benomad.com/dev/doc/bemap-api/api/map-context/currency-codes.md

With the BeMap MCP server, your assistant also checks each request against the specification before sending it.
