NimbostratusSet Authorisation Header when calling the response URL
Hi All,
I want to achieve the following usecase, i have added the code to grab the authorisation header, i need to post the authorisation header to the cookigenerator url to get the sitemindercookie.
I dont know how to set the header when calling the url "http://usclspcit192.airservices.eds.com/OAuthDemo/cookiegenerator.html" once the status is "OK"
Code: when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::header exists "Authorization"] } {
set authzheaders "Authorization: [HTTP::header value Authorization]"
log local0. $authzheaders
} }
when HTTP_RESPONSE { if { [HTTP::status] == 200} {
log local0. $authzheaders
HTTP::redirect "http://usclspcit192.airservices.eds.com/OAuthDemo/cookiegenerator.html"
}}
Regards, Praque

HTTP::redirect does HTTP GET. for HTTP POST, you need HTTP::retry or sideband. the following thread and article have POST example.

Just out of curiosity, is the cookigenerator url a separate server that isn't in the path of normal traffic? If so it may make more sense to issue a sideband connection.
