JSON

Specifying the following credentials file:

{
  “credentials”: [
    {
      “principal”: “user”,
      “secret”: “password”
    }
  ]
}

Then hitting a master endpoint with:

curl -i -u “user:password” ...

Does not work. This is contrary to the text-based credentials file which works:

user password

Currently, the password in a JSON-based credentials file needs to be base64-encoded in order for it to work:

{
  “credentials”: [
    {
      “principal”: “user”,
      “secret”: “cGFzc3dvcmQ=”
    }
  ]
}
