Hi All, I need a help with cy.Visit() using basic auth. For some reason both methods mentioned in documentation ( direct pass creds via url, adding params to visit ) and also adding header with authorisation : "basic tokenhash" are not working. I've checked all these methods on some other test example sites which I was able to find (e.g. https://the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth admin:admin Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=) they all work fine. So I suspect there is something special with our Angular app. We are building app based on angular11 and using basicAuth from 'express-basic-auth' and we have prerender. Year ago I was using simple url pass ( https:// user:pass @ domain.site ) and it was working fine. Now not using any auth - just returns 401 immediately and using any of mentioned methods fails after 30 seconds timeout( Error: ESOCKETTIMEDOUT) . I'm stuck with this, and need an advice.

Hard to say what could be the issue without being able to see the site. If you're able to authenticate via the UI, you can use that as a workaround.

cy.session()

will allow you to cache those cookies and use them in other specs. Not as speedy as if you did it all headlessly, but better than nothing
