Have a request send credentials for windows authorization

[phoopee3]

Summary

I am running cronicle on my local computer, and want it to ping some servers I have at work. The issue is that the servers I have are running Windows and IIS. On top of that, the sites are locked down using "windows authentication". When I use other api tools, like postman, insomnia or cURL, I have to use an authentication method called NTLM to pass the credentials with the request. I cannot find a way to include those credentials in the request. If someone can tell me where the request is actually made, or what tool/script it's using, maybe I can find a way to tack on the username and password.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Have a server running Windows, IIS, and a site set up in that that has basic authentication turned off, and windows authentication turned on.

Use another computer running cronicle to try to ping that server.

Your Setup

I have the basic cronicle set up on my Mac.

Operating system and version?

Mac, 12.6.1
Server, Windows server 2012 (don't judge me), IIS 8 (really please don't judge me)

Node.js version?

18.7.0

Cronicle software version?

0.9.16

Are you using a multi-server setup, or just a single server?

Single server

Are you using the filesystem as back-end storage, or S3/Couchbase?

File system

Hmmm... well, the Cronicle HTTP Request Plugin probably cannot do what you want. It's only designed to make simple HTTP requests.
What you want to use is curl. I'd suggest using the Shell Plugin, and using the curl utility that is built-in to your Mac. Example:

#!/bin/bash

curl http://enterprisesharepoint -v --ntlm --negotiate -u USER123:PASSWORD123

I'm going to migrate this over to a discussion, as it is not an issue with Cronicle per se.

OK thank you for the quick reply. I will see what I can do with that!
