I am trying to write a simple test case for a page that requires basic HTTP authentication, but after running the WebUI.authenticate method, it will always mark the test as a failure with the cause “com.kms.katalon.core.exception.StepFailedException: Unable to navigate to authenticated page”, even t…

No worries. Did you try to use https://user:pass@site.com format? In your case something like this: WebUI.openBrowser("https://username:" + Decrypt.dec() + "@something.com/mypage.aspx")

Hello, you must provide a full URI including a domain name.

The URI is well formed ( https://something.com/mypage.aspx ). The mypage.aspx was just a placeholder. My apologies if that was not clear.

That one seems to work, actually. I had believed the username:password@site format was depreciated, but it seems to work without any issues now. So long as this won’t be a security risk (and it shouldn’t as the tests are planned to be run as a read only, heavily secured user), this works well for me…

Basic authentication itself should be deprecated now. :slight_smile: But as soon as you use HTTPS, it is quite safe, no matter if you use credentials in an address or in a header.

So is there anyway to do this with variables for the username and password? I have more then one user account that I need to test with.

This doesn’t really answer my question. When I try to enter separate variables for each part of this it does not work. So as an exmaple I tried entering WebUI.openBrowser(GlobalVariable.userName,GlobalVariable.Password,GlobalVariable.Staging_URL) I also tried http://userName :Password@Staging_URL Ne…

Pretty straight forward. WebUI.authenticate(‘ http://tmcfeature16-07.tmctrans.com/DX.Home ’, GlobalVariable.userName, GlobalVariable.Password, 12, FailureHandling.OPTIONAL) always returns this 05-07-2020 12:54:28 PM authenticate(“ http://tmcfeature16-07.tmctrans.com/DX.Home ”, userName, Password, 12,…

@david.tegeler I want to check if your AUT is challenging you either by HTTP Basic Authentication or by HTTP+HTML form-based Authentication . Why? Because WebUI.authenticate keyword applies to the Basic authentication, does not apply to the Form-based authentication. If your AUT have Form-based aut…
