Let's assume that you have the following URL:
terminalhttp://${user}:${pass}@${address}:${port}/set?operation=status
If you want to fetch the URL with credentials, you need to set the headers as Authorization
and encode user
and pass
in base-64.
javascriptconst fetchURL = async (user, pass, address, port) => { // If you try to fetch the URL like // let url = `http://${user}:${pass}@${address}:${port}/set?operation=status`; // let res = await fetch(url); // It won't work, you need to include user and pass in the header let url = `http://${address}:${port}/set?operation=status`; let res = await fetch(url, {headers: {'Authorization': 'Basic ' + btoa(user + ":" + pass) }}); if(res.ok){ // Do something here } }
