Esp32 Arduino/C Digest Authentication

Can anybody tell me how to do an http PUT command, in C/Arduino, using digest authentication?
Python requests makes it so easy.

It’s funny, I remember trying this in 2015 with no success, but in the interim I’ve learned a little bit more and thought how hard can this be. Two hours and 30 web browser windows later and I have no leads.

On further thought, if somebody could tell me how to do it using basic authentication on Arduino I would be really jazzed

Check out the plugin arduino.

That uses http but no auth.

And with the basic arduino there is not enough memory to do these kind of things.

When you use the esp then yes.

Thanks Karl!

For perpetuity, i got the following to work with basic authentication, though i can’t say i fully understand why!

Code: Select all

HTTPClient client;
client.begin(“USER:PWD@LOCALIP:8177/actions/ACTIONGROUP!_method=execute”);
int httpCode = client.GET();


It returns a 303, but i can now wire up little $8 controllers to run action groups, which is awesome.
