VBA Authentication ALM 11.52 - Set-cookie missing in response header

[Kepha75007]

Hi community !

I'l trying to authenticate on ALM 11.52 server through VBA Excel.

Dim objHTTP As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP60

url_authenticate = url_base & "/authentication-point/authenticate"
' where url_base is https://<alm-server>/qcbin
Call objHTTP.Open("POST", url_authenticate, False, user, pwd)
Call objHTTP.send("")
token = objHTTP.getResponseHeader("Set-Cookie")

No matter what is the type of request (POST, GET)... token is always empty.

Set-Cookie response header is missing and objHTTP.status=200...

The same request (same URL, user and password), sent through Firefox Rest Client plugin, gets Set-Cookie in response header.

Any idea why Set-Cookie is not part of response header ?

Thank you

Kepha

Thx Dennis, my mistake.

By the way, if anyone encounters the same problem, I found the solution.

Changing

objHTTP As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP60

by

objHTTP As New MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP60

 will do.
