The scenario is different, with http you have the proxy and taget request being the same, with connect proxies they are separate requests.
In both cases however you would not set the header yourself but use the appropriate authentication method on the proxy scope of the credential provider (however I am not sure if this works preemptive). -- https://Bernd.eckenfels.net ________________________________ Von: Kaushal Kothari <kaushalkothari2...@gmail.com> Gesendet: Montag, Juli 15, 2019 1:40 PM An: httpclient-users@hc.apache.org Betreff: Re: [HttpClient 4.5.5 ]Proxy-Authorization header missing while requesting HTTPS url Does HttpClient not send the "Proxy-Authorization" header along with CONNECT request when we access the HTTPS url?

So I created the POST request using the HttpPost class which is from the HttpClient API. HttpClient doesn't generate the "Proxy-Authorization Basic <encode_auth>" header so added the same and pass it to HttpClient to extract it from the POST request. request = new HttpPost(); //please refer screenshot in last mail for details in request object request.addHeader("Proxy-Authorization","Basic "+encodedAuth); httpResponse = httpClientBuilder.execute(request); On Fri, Jul 12, 2019 at 5:55 PM Kaushal Kothari <kaushalkothari2...@gmail.com<mailto:kaushalkothari2...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi Team, I am trying to do POC using the HttpClient 4.5.5 library and want to access HTTPS url masked through a http proxy server with basic authentication and its failing. The authentication proxy header should be sent as part of the connect but it is not happening.
