Node js always Getting error 401 (Unauthorized)

Question

I'm trying to make POST request on node.js to url, but always get ERROR 401 (Unauthorized).

const response = await fetch('url', {
  method: 'POST',
  mode: 'no-cors',
  headers: {
    "Content-Type": "text/html; charset=utf-8",
    "Authorization": 'Basic ' + Buffer.from('username' + ":" + "password", 'base64').toString('base64')
  },
  body: ''
});

I'm tried to use btoa, however node.js does not support that...

headers.set('Authorization', 'Basic ' + btoa(username + ":" + password));

Answer 1

try this:

let loginData = "username" + ":" + "password";
let encodedData = new Buffer(loginData);
let base64data = encodedData.toString('base64');
