Authentication Tester steps not working in ZAP Automation Framework / Docker

[Haro Haroon]

Hi Simon,

I was able to get authentication working in the desktop version using the Authentication Tester. The login flow requires three fields: clientid, username, and password.

When I try to replicate the same setup in the Automation Framework YAML (running in Docker), it seems the steps configuration isn’t supported.

Is there an equivalent to the Authentication Tester in Docker / Automation Framework? And what’s the recommended way to handle additional login fields like clientid in automation? I’m trying to achieve this without using a script if possible.

Thanks!

Hi,

Can you provide more details on the "not supported"? Are you seeing any
errors?
