Synthetic HTTP Monitor domain credential popup.

roy_carroll — Tue, 28 Apr 2020 21:10:58 GMT

I have a internal URL that I am trying to setup a Synthetic HTTP Monitor for. The URL is on a separate domain and there is no trust, so I need to be able to supply the domain credentials to access the site when prompted. I tried adding credentials using the set authentication/authorization option with no luck. Confirmed able to browse to the location and supply the credentials in the dialog prompt. Is there a way to pass the necessary domain credentials for the HTTP Monitor? Or a better way to accomplish this?

Hi Roy,

do you know the type of authentication that is used here? If not, you can try to use a browser monitor and provided the credentials via the basic authentication option. (this should also solve NTLM, Kerberos challenges)

Kind regards, Philipp

Hi,

It's using NTLM authentication. I was able to get it working using a browser monitor setup using our internal gateway which at first I wasn't able to locate, but later I was.

Thanks,

Roy
