How to fix “unauthorized” issue in jmeter recorded script

Question

I am new to jmeter. I am using jmeter recording for my application. When i am running the recorded script then i am getting "Unauthorized" error in response. While recording Http Authorization Manager has been already set.

My Request is following:

Please help! Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You may have to add HTTP Authorization Manager to construct proper "Authorization" header basing on username/password/domain/etc.

See Windows Authentication with Apache JMeter guide to learn more on handling different authentication types in JMeter

Answer 2

Have you added 'HTTP Cookie Manager' in your recorded script? At this point it seems that some session ids are not being passed and that in turn is making you unauthorized user.

Please add Cookie Manager and compare your JMeter requests with the actual requests being sent from browser. You might be missing out some IDs that are invalidating your session.

Answer 3

I solve the issue. I had to define the "Authorization" and its value to the HTTP Header Manager.
