I am trying to write a C# app that logs into a web page for me. The actual web page with the login is http://www.site.com/login.
When I monitor the connection the credentials are actually passed to http://www.site.com/security_check.
I cannot get this to work I keep getting error 401 "Unauthorized Access" on both pages. Can anyone direct me to a good page that explains how to login? I have googled the hell out of it I keep getting use httpwebrequest then use
logInRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(dealerName, passWord);
Here is the whole request I have tried. Just copied pasted off a message board. I believe its a JSON login but I am not 100% on that.
//proxy request
string MyProxyHostString = "192.168.1.200";
int MyProxyPort = 8080;
// Login request
HttpWebRequest logInRequest = WebRequest.Create("https://site.com/security_check") as HttpWebRequest;
logInRequest.Proxy = new WebProxy(MyProxyHostString, MyProxyPort);
//login request params
logInRequest.Method = "GET";
logInRequest.KeepAlive = true;
logInRequest.Proxy.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
logInRequest.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
logInRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(userName, passWord);
logInRequest.ContentType = "application/json";
//get cookie from Web API
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)logInRequest.GetResponse();
foreach (Cookie cookieValue in response.Cookies)
{
Console.Write("Cookie: " + cookieValue.ToString());
//store in your winform application
}
//get content
string myResponse = "";
using (System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
myResponse = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
