Hi,

It seems not possible to enable hmac AND basic authentication on the same endpoint

Is there a reason for that ?
If I want to be able to do that what should I do ?

Best regards
Pascal Combescot

Hi Pascal,

Nope it isn’t possible

HMAC works only with regular session tokens and is treated as an independent auth method.

We’d need to change how HMAC middleware (as an addition instead of as an auth method).

Cheers,
Martin
