HTTP Requests with Cookies

AJP — Thu, 25 May 2023 13:20:14 GMT

I am working with certain APIs which work with Basic authentication and then use the cookies in the subsequent GET requests. I am able to get this working in Postman as below.

1. Authentication Request (GET) with basic authentication
2. Subsequent GET Request (This request uses cookies from the previous authentication request)

Just wondering how can I implement this in Blue Prism. I don't see any options to work with Cookies in the HTTP Request action. How can I get the cookies from the first authentication request and pass the same in subsequent ones?

Thanks.

First, make sure you have the latest version of the Utility - HTTP VBO from the Digital Exchange. Cookies can be set on an request by using the Headers input collection. Define an entry called Cookie and then give it a value.
