Hello folks,

XWiki REST authentication can be BASIC authentication or XWiki browser
sessions. Found XWIKI-3268 (http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3268)
which stated the same. However is there a possibility to add
username/password used by the XWiki users into the HTTPClient authentication
methods.

 At present, BASIC authentication would mean creating a username/password
again for the users. And relying on cookies mechanism requires that the
XWiki user should be logged into XWiki through a browser before s/he can
make REST requests. Either ways, an http client won't be able to
authenticate users without making them put an extra effort to login manually
somewhere.

Please let me know your views on this one & If there is a work around to
this.

Thank you guys.

 

 

Regards,

Dilipkumar Jadhav
