I'm looking to make the following query with jQuery only:

curl -XGET "https://lookups.twilio.com/v1/PhoneNumbers/55-11-5525-6325?Type=carrier&Type=caller-name" -u "{AccountSid}:{AuthToken}"

So far I have:

$.get("https://lookups.twilio.com/v1/PhoneNumbers/" + number + "?Type=carrier", function (data) {
    callback(data);
});

But how do I include the -u data?

you wouldn't want to...would expose your credentials in browser. Also you need token before you can send it – charlietfl Jul 14 '16 at 21:51
[`-X` just lets you specify the method.](https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html#-X) So doing `-XGET` is the same as doing a GET request, which is actually the default for `curl`. – Mike Cluck Jul 14 '16 at 21:51
@MikeC OP is asking how to send the credentials – epascarello Jul 14 '16 at 21:52
@epascarello Maybe but the title is "How do I make an XGET request with jQuery?" – Mike Cluck Jul 14 '16 at 21:53
And the last line is _"But how do I include the -u data?"_ and clearly the OP used jQuery's get() – epascarello Jul 14 '16 at 22:01
