Accessing a URL Protected by Basic Authentication

Siebel Business Applications support server, or basic, authentication. You can use basic authentication with the EAI HTTP Transport to send messages. For more information on authentication, see Siebel Security Guide.

The format for accessing a URL protected by basic authentication with HTTP Outbound is:

http://username:password@host/rest of the URL

For example:

http://Administrator:manage@127.0.0.1:5555/example.com/stuff

NOTE:  The EAI HTTP Transport business service does not provide standard parameters to support the use of Digest HTTP Authentication.
