insomnia-plugin-env-authentication v1.0.2

Environmental Authentication

This plugin allows you to configure your request authentication in your environment.

Usage

Basic usage

The plugin is configured to search for either the 'auth' or the 'auth_settings' key in your environment. In this object you can define your value just like you would in the 'auth' tab.

Here's an example:

  "auth_settings": {
    "accessTokenUrl": "http://some-website.test/oauth/token",
    "grantType": "password",
    "type": "oauth2"
    "clientId": 9,
    "clientSecret": "secret",
    "password": "secret",
    "username": "user@example.net"
  }

Layered environments

You may also combine the auth_settings and auth keys, this can be usefull if you define different environments in your folders, here's an example:

Note: Environment keys get overwritten by Insomnia, not merged. Hence the available auth_settings an auth keys.

Main environment:

    // define that every request should use oauth2
	"auth_settings": {
		"accessTokenUrl": "http://some-website.test/oauth/token",
		"grantType": "password",
		"type": "oauth2"
	}

Users folder environment:

    // Define your user for this folder
    "auth": {
        "clientId": 9,
        "clientSecret": "secret",
        "password": "secret",
        "username": "user@example.net"
    }
