I need to create a monitor to check the login page using the given credential(username and password). The link is HTTP and i am able to login to the page from my browser using the same credentials.

eg.

Monitor page: "; username: “test” password: “test@123” recveive string: “perfect”

I tried with basic http monitor but it doesn’t seems to be work, have someone came across such requirement with solution.

Hi,

Can you try to authenticate with firefox

- before test, launch **developper tool** --\> **Network**
- Access to the web site and authenticate
- There may be a POST request in the developper tools. right click and select **Copy As curl**
- anonymize the data and post the command line here.
