How do you use JMeter with Digest Authentication?

I'm trying to use JMeter to test a web application, but there is no documentation o开发者_Go百科n how to set it up to use digest authentication. I've tried using the proxy server to record the authentication, but the requests have no information that I can see in the UI and playback doesn't work. It seems the default with JMeter is basic authentication, though I've heard hints that digest can be used. A simple example would be great.

JMeter supports DIGEST authentication using Authorization Manager and httpclient Using HTTP 3.1 :

in jmeter.Properties , uncomment:

httpclient.parameters.file=full path to bin folder/httpclient.parameters

in httpclient.parameters, uncomment:

http.authentication.preemptive$Boolean=true

Using HTTP Client 4:

hc.parameters.file=full path to bin folder/hc.parameters

in hc.parameters, uncomment:

http.authentication.preemptive$Boolean=true

Have you tried the online manual?

I used JMeter (version 3.0) with Digest Authentication to consume RESTful APIs(, which were protected by Spring Digest Authentication)

I configured JMeter as below. And it worked perfectly for me. FYI:
