How do I authenticate a WebClient request?

问题:

I am making a call to a page on my site using webclient. I'm trying to get the result of the webpage put into a pdf so I am trying to get a string representation of the rendered page. The problem is that the request is not authenticated so all I get is a login screen. I have sent the UseDefaultCredentials property to true but I still get the same result. Below is a portion of my code:

 WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
 webClient.Encoding = Encoding.UTF8;

 webClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
 return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(webClient.UploadValues(link, "POST",form));

回答1:

What kind of authentication are you using? If it's Forms authentication, then at best, you'll have to find the .ASPXAUTH cookie and pass it in the WebClient request.

At worst, it won't work.

回答2:

You need to give the WebClient object the credentials. Something like this...

 WebClient client = new WebClient();
 client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
 client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");

Public Function getWeb(ByRef sURL As String) As String
    Dim myWebClient As New System.Net.WebClient()

    Try
        Dim myCredentialCache As New System.Net.CredentialCache()
        Dim myURI As New Uri(sURL)
        myCredentialCache.Add(myURI, "ntlm", System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials)
        myWebClient.Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8
        myWebClient.Credentials = myCredentialCache
        Return myWebClient.DownloadString(myURI)
    Catch ex As Exception
        Return "Exception " & ex.ToString()
    End Try
End Function
