Login through a protected directory - ebolisa - Jul-23-2021
Hi,
I've an index.html page stored in a protected folder, how do I get to it?
The code below doesn't work.
TIA
import requests
url='https://mypage.com/private/index.html'
values={'username':'user','password':'pass'}
r=requests.post(url, data=values)
print(r.content)

try:
url = 'file:///private/index.html'the part after file/// needs to be full path

Thank you, will try. However, it’s a web folder and it may use .haccess as a security gate.

Solved. Here's the code:
import requests import urllib3 urllib3.disable_warnings() URL = 'https://www.mypage.com/private/' HTACCESS_USER = 'me' HTACCESS_PASSW = 'mypass' data = requests.get(URL, verify = False, auth = (HTACCESS_USER, HTACCESS_PASSW)) print(data.text) # passed .htaccess, perfect! now on login page
