user authentication in rest api2.0
Hi,
in this article https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ResourceOrientedWorkItemAPIv2 there are examples for basic and form based authentication using curl. Is there anyway to do the authentication in url? for example, instead of curl: curl -k -u myusername:mypassword "https://localhost:9443/oslc/workitems/1.json" calling url: https://localhost:9443/oslc/workitems/1.json?user=myusername&pass=mypassword Thanks, Julia |

in this article You could try this: https://user:password@localhost:9443/oslc/workitems/1.json -- Regards, Patrick Jazz Work Item Team |

Hi Patrick,
it doesnt work. I'm getting an error message "windows cannot find 'https://user:password@localhost:9443/oslc/workitems/1.json'. Check the spelling and try again.". Are you sure it is the correct format? Julia. |
I'm getting an error message "windows cannot find It would be the general format to include the user credentials in a URL, but I haven't tried myself. Authentication is handled by the web container, not by the RTC rest implementation. If you are trying this using a browser (as the error message suggests), you don't need to include the credentials explicitly. Just use https://localhost:9443/jazz/oslc/workitems/1.json and you will be prompted for username/password. -- Regards, Patrick Jazz Work Item Team |
