Using WebView setHttpAuthUsernamePassword?

Question

I\'m trying to do basic authentication to view a protected url. I want to access the protected url which looks like this:

http://api.test.com/userinfo/vid?=1         


        

Answer 1

If you do not mind writing your username and password into the url, then it is not necessary to change your webview client.

Just open the following url in the webview:

http://username:password@api.test.com/userinfo/vid?=1234
