Re: [Qgis-user] Assistance with Basic Authentication

Hi Folks,

I am still really keen to get a resolution to this issue if anyone can provide 
more leads or quotes to get authentication working with geojson.

Cheers - Phil

Larry,

Is the authentication system supported by the OGR provider? I couldn't see 
anywhere in the provider itself where this is handled.

Hi Nyall,

Indeed, it is not. I think to support that we would need to incorporate the
auth selector dialog into all layer property dialogs, as well as any access
point  or API call to GDAL/OGR data. There is no 'connection configuration'
dialog like there is with OWS and Postgres.

Hi Phil,

Contact me directly with the connection info and I will see what's needed
or missing from the auth system API.

Hi Phil,

Does your endpoint prompt an HTTP Basic username/password dialog when
connecting to it via a Web browser? If not, then your server may not be
sending the correct challenge:

https://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/1.0/spec.html#BasicAA

Hi Devs (moving this to dev list),

I tested the geojson url of Phil, and if I provide username and password 
IN the url like below it works:


https://username:password@server/api/reports/sample/addresses/geojson

But without the username/password in the url, QGIS does not provide any 
authentication dialogs or so.


Is the api missing a header which QGIS needs to know there is 
authentication on it?


Or how is QGIS triggered to show authentication dialogs when provided 
basic authentication on a 'protocol'-vector layer?

Richard Duivenvoorde
