Auth tab not available on the updated WPT?

WebPageTest

Hi all,

for my client I’ve developed a workflow using WPT and the log in auth feature to test lower environments, I can’t seem to access the auth tab - how can we bypass log in for lower environments or do we need to upgrade to the API?

Thanks!

We started to hide it by default in the public UI. We had some overly aggressive password managers autofilling the fields here without users knowing it (even though we were trying to turn autocomplete off) which obviously was something we didn’t want. :slight_smile:

You can turn it on by adding an auth parameter to the URL: WebPageTest - Website Performance and Optimization Test

Or by using a custom script and the setHeader command: Custom Scripting | WebPageTest Documentation
