Using NTLM authentication

[shreypath]

• VSCode Version: 1.3.1
• OS Version: Windows 10
• REST Client Version: 0.5.4

Steps to Reproduce: Is there a way to use Windows NTLM authentication via the REST client? I'm able to get the response via the python HTttpNtlmAuth library, but curious to see if the same can be achieved via the REST client.

@symbioticKid , thanks for your suggestion. And I think this is not a quite general requirement, so I'd like to put this in backlog.

[Yvand]

Hi, this would also be very useful to me, are you considering to implement this in the near future?

[Huachao]

@Yvand I know your pain. Currently we use Request package to issue HTTP request, which doesn't have native NTLM support, although it already some related feature discussions like NTLM Support and some work around like Using custom package, no official and suggested way to achieve this. So I'd like to put it in backlog temporarily. If still have many requests for this feature, I will implement in my own code to achieve this. Great thanks for your usage, @Yvand and @symbioticKid

👍 Would love to see this feature as well.

This package for me looks more reliable, but most likely because I've used it and it did not caused any problems.

[lw-schick]

I really miss this feature!

I found here a really good explanation how it works. I guess that will help you a lot if you want to develop it by your own. It looks not so difficult at all...

This would be a killer feature. +1

Moved to an internal project that uses NTLM. It's a shame I can't use this plugin here, as I found it so incredibly useful in my previous project.

Still, +1 to this feature. It'd be wonderful to see it implemented.

Any workaround for this issue ?

[eddingsta]

I would love to see support for NTLM implemented. This is a great tool for VS Code development. As a work around, I do testing with Postman. As it supports NTLM.

[rise05]

Thank you for a great tool! Would also love to see NTLM support.

[waldo1001]

Serious backlog :-/

+1 for me!

[brbecker]

Is there any progress moving away from the request library, which has been deprecated since 2020-02-11, to one which supports additional authentication methods? I'm going to have to find a replacement for REST client, if not.

[Huachao]

@brbecker my extension has migrated to got library for several releases

[TheDanishDynamo]

Finding myself resorting to the bloated postman which has a NTLM (beta) option

[gregiare]

I would also love to see NTLM support. I have moved most of my stuff from Postman to this but not the stuff that requires NTLM.

[mkrigba]

+1 NTLM support would be appreciated.

Seriously, NTLM is not a backlog issue, many people who work with these tools are in corporate environment wanted to test internal API which are NTLM in most cases. you should help us with this. earlier postman also don't have NTLM, now they added it. please consider it a bit high priority

[reddam1234]

NTLM support is a crucial feature, particularly for professionals working in corporate environments where internal APIs often use NTLM authentication. It's essential for testing and development purposes. While Postman initially lacked NTLM support, they have since recognized its importance and implemented it. if you can prioritize this feature it will be helpful to meet the needs of many users who rely on NTLM for their workflows

I love the REST Client extension 👍 , but I need NTLM support!!! :-)
