I use Cypress for testing an angular application. When setting up the environment I need some Backend stuff so I use cy.request with an Authorization Header.
The Problem is, when this request fails, the complete request including the authorization header will be logged. As long as I am in a local env this is no problem, but I also run those tests in a CI pipeline (Teamcity).
Is there a way, one can remove / redact the authorization header in the logs?

I'm getting 403 error on each custom rest api while executing the sharepoint login.
Could you please share with me a solution with an example?
This error comes
{"error":{"code":"-2147024891,
System.UnauthorizedAccessException","message":{"lang":"en-US","value":"Access
denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access
this resource."}}}
Most probably you need to add proper authentication context to each API request and the most common way to protect the API from unauthorized usage is requirement to have valid Authorization header.
Inspect the outgoing requests to your custom API using your browser's developer tool and pay attention to the request headers in the "Network" tab, I believe you should see the aforementioned "Authorization" header or Cookie header or something like this.
In your JMeter script you can add custom headers to your requests using HTTP Header Manager
JMeter should handle Cookies automatically given you add HTTP Cookie Manager to your Test Plan.
I'm new to JMeter.
My web app is using windows authentication. As soon as you access the page, it logs you in without the need to enter credentials (No way to log out either). I was able to use HTTP Authorization Manager + HTTP Request Sampler to access the page.
My next step is to cycle through 5 test accounts against the same HTTP Request. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like HTTP Authorization Manager supports multiple logins for the same url. Running the test, it only uses the first set of credentials.
I tried using CVS DataSet Config, but the url does not support Post or Get method for login.
Any suggestions on how I would be able to create multiple logins for a HTTP Request Sampler? If it cannot be done with the HTTP Request Sampler, any alternative samplers I should use instead?
Thanks
Figured out I was able to include variables within the HTTP Authorization Manager.
Combined it with the CSV Data Set Config and it works as expected!
Im using Jmeter to write some load tests on an API secured by oAuth.
I want to be able to reuse the header manager once the bearer token has been produced from the access token call.
However when I try to move the header manager out side of the http request the call is no longer authorised. I think its because it can no longer get the bearer token.
For Post Request, when i put the header manager outside it no longer works, it only works when I put it under the request as I have done for User get request, Delete request and Put request.
How do I make the header manager reusable and therefore only manage one header manager?
Thank you.

My expectation is that this is due to clash with the HTTP Authorization Manager
Both are Configuration Elements and both obey JMeter Scoping rules
When you move HTTP Header Manager outside the HTTP Request sampler it might be the case that Authorization Header comes from the HTTP Authorization Manager
You can check which exact header value is being sent using Request -> Request Headers tab of the View Results Tree listener
Given you manually create Authorization header for your request I believe if you disable or delete the HTTP Authorization Manager your test should start working as expected as you basically don't need it.
I want to call REST-services from my Angular-app. However, these REST-services are hosted on WLP and are part of a WAR-file developed by some company a while ago, ie. we have no source code.
I can call GET-methods without any issues from Postman, I just need to set authentication and accept headers. However, calling these GET-methods from Angular via web browsers will trigger preflight request (OPTIONS) without Authentication header prop. Seems to me that OPTIONS requests are triggered by the browsers and Angular cannot set headers for them. I confirmed OPTIONS requests need authentication by running requests via Postman with and without auth header prop.
Similar problems were discussed in other posts on stackoverflow but in such cases people had control over their server side code and could alter it to avoid authentication headers for OPTIONS request. Clearly in my case, I cannot do it.
My question is if there is a possibility to configure WLP to not ask for authentication header prop in case of OPTIONS-requests (seems to be configurable for Apache web servers and Tomcat)?
Kind regards

Even without source, you should be able to edit web.xml and modify the security-constraints to punch a hole for OPTIONS.
I am trying to make a script to test REST services using Jmeter.
Till now I was using Chrome’s Advanced REST Client.
My authentication request was GET and it was something like this in Advanced REST:
https://username:password#URL:portnumber
its a GET request
Now when I am using Jmeter. I tried following ways:
I added HTTP Authorization Manager and mentioned Base URL and Username/password inside it.
When I am trying to do a request then its showing me “Unauthorized”
I also tried to login using normal https request but no success.
When accessed manually, a authorization popup window appears and username and password is submitted inside this window.
Please suggest me a way for how to login using Jmeter.
Few suggestions:
Most likely you have mismatch in URL you're trying hit and the one, specified in HTTP Authorization Manager, double check it.
Add View Results Tree listener and make sure that the header like:
Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxxxxxx=
is being sent along with the request and compare it with the one, sent by the real browser.
Try switching "Implementation" of your HTTP Request samplers to HttpClient3.1, the easiest way of doing this is using HTTP Request Defaults
And finally, you can use HTTP Header Manager to send the relevant header, it's name should be Authorization and value Basic and username:password encoded in Base64. There is base64Encode function available via JMeter Plugins.
