How to Use Digest Authentication in SOAP UI

Question

I want to test a SOAP API using Digest Authentication, but I only see the option for Basic Authentication in the interface. Can anyone help me understand how to use the interface for Digest Authentication?

Hi shand2i&nbsp;
SoapUI Open Source has limitations when it comes to authentication.&nbsp;While it offers Basic Authentication through its user interface, Digest Authentication is not directly supported.&nbsp;
Despite Pre-emptive Basic Authentication can be used as ab other option in certain situations, it doesn't provide true Digest Authentication.&nbsp;However you can configure SoapUI to include the username and password in the initial request by enabling the "Preemptive Authentication" option in the HTTP Settings preferences (File &gt; Preferences &gt; HTTP Settings).&nbsp;
This may be sufficient for servers that accept Basic Authentication in response to Digest challenges
Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!Thank you very much and have a great one!Warm regards
