Issue with REST authentication -method failed with code 401- invalid username/password combo.

[Sharad S]

Hi Team,

I am facing issue with REST base authentication. In this case, i don't have to use basic authentication but its kind of SSO cookie token (generated separately which is getting without any issue) and pass it through REST header. While test its giving method failed with code 401- invalid username/password combo.

Please find attached screenshot for reference.

Thanks.

can you try using "basic" instead of "BASIC"

also please be sure the  user and the password exists in 3rd party tool.

Hi, No luck with token base authentication, asked third-party team to provide encoded authentication details and now, its progressed further.
