REST Autentication

Question

Hi,I am trying to set 'basic' authentication on REST request. When I add 'AUTHORISATION' to header parameters, I can not get this value on server side. Somehow REST not passing or blocking AUTHORISATION.Can any one explain how we can set basic authentication on REST requests.

In your REST request editor, there's an "Auth" tab at the bottom. You should be able to populate the authentication, just as described here - http://www.soapui.org/SOAP-and-WSDL/aut ... uests.html

While setting the username and password in the Auth tab or add an "Authorization" header with "Basic base64-encoded("username:password")" works fine for me, specifying the username and password for the whole service (like for SOAP services) using the Service Viewer and adding the username and password to the service endpoint does not work!
