Along with tunnel, I am using the basic auth flag but still it shows the basic auth screen when trying to access my website. Also, henever I am trying locally on my browser the basic auth URL redirects directly into the website. Does basic auth from tunnel support special characters like @ in passwords?
Hi Michael,
Your assumption is correct, if the username or password has special characters then they need to be % encoded.
For eg, in place of @ you need to use %40
You may refer to this article for more % encoded values: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/percent-encoding
