How to pass your username and password in a get request with groovy?

I send GET request and receive error 500

 def baseUrl = new URL(url)
         HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) baseUrl.openConnection();
         connection.addRequestProperty("Authorization", "user1 user1")
         connection.addRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json")
         connection.with {
           doOutput = true
           requestMethod = 'GET'
           println content.text
         }

I am sure that my api work true.

Answer

The way you wrote the "Authorization" header is incorrect. For basic authentication, you need to encode the username and password and use it alongside the "Basic" keyword.

import java.net.HttpUrlConnection
import java.net.URL
import java.util.Base64.Encoder

def baseUrl = new URL("https://myurl.com")
def credentials = "user1 user1"
def encodedCredentials = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(credentials.getBytes())
...
connection.addRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic " + encodedCredentials.toString())
...
