Symptoms:
The Swagger UI does not provide the option to provide basic authentication. We cannot provide the username and password to authenticate our-self.
Cause:
No Option to provide credentials in Swagger UI.
When you launch BW process in Studio, its command is "lrestdoc", which will populate the following for you:
lrestdoc
[Application Name]: LdapConn.application
[Discovery Url]: http://dchauhan-T430:7777/LdapConn.application
[Reverse Proxy Url]: null
When you access the Discovery URL in Swagger, you will see the error.
Resolution
Use a Postman rest client or an external client like SoapUI to access it. Choose Basic Authentication and provide a username and password.
