How to route to an endpoint protected with basic authentication? Error: there was a problem proxying the request

[Nick_Wong]

Hi Olu, I have tried both the “strip_auth_data”: false or the global header Basic base64Encode(username:password), but both are not worked.
I then searched through the internet and checked my target url and found that it is actually using a self signed cert. and seems it will cause problem.

How to Invoke target url via https

Hi, could you please let me know if there is any parameter that needs to be enabled to post the data to target url via https. In my scenario, client is post the data via http. TYK is forwarding it to an endpoint which can be accessed via https (one way certificate). Thanks, Jayadatta

I will try the workaround as mentioned in the above link or do u have further knowledge on this issue?
Thanks.
