如何使用 Chrome 扩展“ Advanced RestClient”测试 REST API

按照以下链接中的说明，我成功地为我的 Django 应用程序构建了一个 REST API: http://django-rest-framework.org/tutorial/quickstart。

我可以通过在 Unix 提示符中执行以下操作来测试它:

curl -H 'Accept: application/json; indent=4' -u root:myPassword http://www.myWebsite.com/users/

起作用了:)

然而，我想使用 Chrome 扩展高级休息客户端来测试同样的功能。 我已经安装了扩展，但我不知道在哪里/如何放置字段。当我进行我的受过教育的猜测(正如你可以看到在屏幕截图) ，它拒绝它说“认证凭据没有提供”

我应该如何/在哪里为 REST API 指定参数？

The shortcut format generally used for basic auth is http://username:password@example.com/path. You will also want to include the accept header in the request.

From the screenshot I can see that you want to pass "user" and "password" values to the service. You have send the parameter values in the request header part which is wrong. The values are sent in the request body and not in the request header. Also your syntax is wrong. Correct syntax is: {"user":"user_val","password":"password_val"}. Also check what is the the content type. It should match with the content type you have set to your service.

This seems a very old question, but I am providing an answer, so that it might help others. You can specify the variables in the second screen in the form section, as shown below or in the RAW format by appending the variables as shown in the second image.

Specify Form Variables

Specify in RAW format

If your variable and variable values are valid, you should see a successful response in the response section.

in the header section you have to write

Authorization: Basic aG9sY67890vbGNpbQ==

where string after basic is the 64bit encoding value of your username:password. php example of getting the header values is: echo "Authorization: Basic " . base64_encode("myUser:myPassword");

n.b: I assumed your authentication method as basic. which can be different as well.

The discoverability is dismal, but it's quite clever how Advanced Rest Client handles basic authentication. The shortcut abraham mentioned didn't work for me, but a little poking around revealed how it does it.

The first thing you need to do is add the Authorization header: menus

Then, a nifty little thing pops up when you focus the value input (note the "construct" box in the lower right): construct the auth value

Clicking it will bring up a box. It even does OAuth, if you want! convenient inputs

Tada! If you leave the value field blank when you click "construct," it will add the Basic part to it (I assume it will also add the necessary OAuth stuff, too, but I didn't try that, as my current needs were for basic authentication), so you don't need to do anything. fills in the field as needed

The easy way to get over of this authentication issue is by stealing authentication token using Fiddler.

Steps

  1. Fire up fiddler and browser.
  2. Navigate browser to open the web application (web site) and do the required authentication.
  3. Open Fiddler and click on HTTP 200 HTML page request. Capturing cookie value using Fiddler
  4. On the right pane, from request headers, copy cookie header parameter value. enter image description here
  5. Open REST Client and click on "Header form" tab and provide the cookie value from the clip board.

Click on SEND button and it shall fetch results.

With latest ARC for GET request with authentication need to add a raw header named Authorization:authtoken.

Please find the screen shot Get request with authentication and query params

To add Query param click on drop down arrow on left side of URL box.
