REST Authentication with Groovy

[Rafael Antonio Gutiérrez Turullols]

Hi,

Im trying to connect to my tp server following the instructions for Basic Authentication http://dev.targetprocess.com/rest/authentication#basic and this groovy code using the http-client lib:

@Grab(group='org.codehaus.groovy.modules.http-builder', module='http-builder', version='0.7.1')

import groovyx.net.http.*

import org.apache.http.auth.*

import org.apache.http.impl.client.*

import org.apache.http.client.params.*

import org.apache.http.auth.params.*

import groovy.xml.*

def http = new HTTPBuilder('https://tp.server.com')

http.request(Method.GET, ContentType.TEXT ) { req ->

    uri.path = '/api/v1/UserStories/'

    headers.'User-Agent' = "Mozilla/5.0 Firefox/3.0.4"

    headers.Accept = 'text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8'

    headers.Connection = "keep-alive"

    headers.'Authorization' = "Basic ${"username:password".bytes.encodeBase64().toString()}"

    response.success = { resp, reader ->

        assert resp.statusLine.statusCode == 200

        println "Got response: ${resp.statusLine}"

        println "Content-Type: ${resp.headers.'Content-Type'}"

        println reader.text

    }

    response.'404' = {

        println 'Not found'

    }

}

Im getting an error:

Caught: groovyx.net.http.HttpResponseException: Unauthorized

groovyx.net.http.HttpResponseException: Unauthorized

Does the basic authentication works?

Cheers,

Rafael Gutierrez

Please ensure (using Fiddler on any other debugging proxy) that you have sent the authorization header (some clients does not send it without proper handshake from server). Also, what kind of installation do you use - on-site (hosted on your servers) or on-demand (hostsed on .tpondemand.com)?

Could you plz share the full response with headers and body?

Thanks,
