How to crawl sites with complicated logins with Burp Pro v2022.2

Michael | Last updated: Feb 23, 2022 01:44AM UTC

I'm using Burp Pro v2022.2. Doesn't seem like there's a way to automatically crawl a website with complicated logins. Both options in Application login do not work. It uses basic auth. I have tried both "User login credentials (username & password)" and "Use recorded login sequences (record using Burp's Chrome extension)". They both fail the login step. I have my own session handling rules and macros set up for login. Is there a way to use session handling rules and macros for crawling instead?

Thanks for your message. If your site is using Basic Auth, have you tried configuring the authentication details under User Options -> Platform Authentication? Please let us know if this helps. If you're still having issues after trying this option can you send an email to support@portswigger.net with a few more details about the site and the login so we can take a closer look?
