> Support for preemptive basic authentication
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CAMEL-4056
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-4056
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: camel-http
> Affects Versions: 2.7.2
> Reporter: Richard Kettelerij
> Assignee: Richard Kettelerij
> Fix For: 2.8.0
>
>
> Currently Camel only sends credentials when a server explicitly prompts for
> basic authentication. However there're cases where a URL is available to both
> authenticated as well as unauthenticated parties. In that case the
> {{camel-http}} component won't sent any credentials to the server, even
> though the credentials are explicitly provided in the URI or Exchange.
> This can be solved by enabling preemptive authentication in Apache
> HttpClient. In that case the credentials will always be provided whether the
> server asks for it or not. Enabling this provides a sensible default.
