HTTP Digest-MD5 Authentication Testing with httpbin.org

See more HTTP Examples

The URL https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/passwd is password protected with user="user" and password="passwd". It requires Digest-MD5 authentication. Chilkat will automatically handle Digest-MD5 authentication as required by the server response. In this case, however, the server will fail the authentication unless a Cookie is included in the request. The cookie can have any name and any value. (Yes, this is ridiculous, and many developers have probably spent countless hours assuming their Digest-MD5 implementations were incorrect.) Visual FoxPro

LOCAL loHttp
LOCAL lcStrResponse
LOCAL lnStatus

*  This example assumes the Chilkat HTTP API to have been previously unlocked.
*  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

loHttp.Login = "user"
loHttp.Password = "passwd"

*  Add a cookie to satisfy httpbin.org's desire for cookies..
*  Otherwise, it will fail the perfectly valid Digest-MD5 authentication.
loHttp.SetRequestHeader("Cookie",'something="something"')

lcStrResponse = loHttp.QuickGetStr("https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/passwd")
IF (loHttp.LastMethodSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

? lcStrResponse

lnStatus = loHttp.LastStatus
? "response status code = " + STR(lnStatus)

*  The output of this program is:
*  
*  	{ 
*  	  "authenticated": true, 
*  	  "user": "user"
*  	} 
*  
*  	response status code = 200
