Basic And Form Authentication

Basic authentication with the post method

Report a typo

Consider the Form authorization we implemented in the topic. What happens if we put Basic authentication instead of Form authentication? (This leaves the authentication name ("myFormAuth") and the rest of the code unchanged.)

install(Authentication) {
    basic("myFormAuth") {
        realm = "Access to the '/page' path"
        validate { credentials ->
            if (credentials.name == "Admin" && credentials.password == "2425") {
                UserIdPrincipal(credentials.name)
            } else {
                null
            }
        }
    }
}

Open the IDE and check the result yourself.

Select one or more options from the list

Data from the /auth form is not processed anywhere.

If you fill out the /auth form, the basic authorization dialog box will not appear.

If you fill out the /auth form, the basic authorization dialog will appear anyway, but you will not be able to authorize through it.

If you enter the correct credentials in the /auth form, the basic authorization dialog box will not appear.

Nothing will change.

If you fill out the /auth form, the basic authorization dialog will appear anyway.
