Question
BASIC authentication of REST service
Hi All,
I am trying to access Pega 7 Process REST API to create a case. I have configured the service package to use authentication with BASIC authentication type.
(Example: username - Muthu password - rules)
When i pass the authentication header from my rest client, I get a 401 unauthorized error.
API accessed:http://address:7002/prweb/api/v1/cases
(Authorization: Basic TXV0aHU6cnVsZXM=)
On the other hand, if i pass the UserIdentifier and Password as query string parameters, i am able to authenticate myself and execute the API.
API accessed: http://address:7002/prweb/api/v1/cases?UserIdentifier=Muthu&Password=cnVsZXM=
Please suggest
What I feel, it should propt for username and password. Is your pop up blocked?
Which browser you are using? Could you try with other browser as well?
