Defines constants for well-known HTTP authentication schemes.

public static class HttpAuthenticationSchemes

Inheritance

HttpAuthenticationSchemes

Examples

The following example shows how to use the HttpAuthenticationSchemes constants to construct HTTP Authorization headers. It prints each scheme name and creates a Basic authentication header value.

using System;
using System.Net.Http.Headers;
using System.Text;
using Cuemon.Net.Http;

namespace MyApp.Examples;

public static class HttpAuthenticationSchemesExample
{
    public static void Demonstrate()
    {
        // Use scheme constants to construct Authorization headers
        string basic = HttpAuthenticationSchemes.Basic;
        string bearer = HttpAuthenticationSchemes.Bearer;
        string digest = HttpAuthenticationSchemes.Digest;

        Console.WriteLine($"Basic: {basic}");
        Console.WriteLine($"Bearer: {bearer}");
        Console.WriteLine($"Digest: {digest}");

        // Example: create a Basic authentication header value
        string credentials = Convert.ToBase64String(
            Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("user:password"));
        string authHeader = $"{basic} {credentials}";
        Console.WriteLine($"Authorization: {authHeader}");
    }
}
