Do you want to perform this function manually, or do you need this to be automated?

Hi Liam or any friend at Support team, I'm facing the exactly Sam's situation. In my case, I want to do this automatically. I mean, this could be done via Intruder tool? Or maybe a Macro and how to do it? Thank you in advance! Edwin.

Hi Edwin Can you please expand on exactly what you are wanting to do? So that we can best advise you.

Hi Dominyque When I click on "Recover Password" in Burp Proxy an HTTP OPTION request is sent first, then after sending and receiving that request the HTTP POST request is sent to the intended endpoint so, in order to automate an attack using Burp Intruder, how can I send a POST request to Burp Intruder knowing that it must be preceding a HTTP OPTION request?

Hi Edwin Thank you for providing further explanation. You should be able to do this using a macro. If you run a macro, select the request that you want and hit OK (ensure that Intruder is selected in the Scope settings, but this should be enabled by default) Then, set up your intruder attack as you normally would, but you must set a Resource Pool and have the maximum concurrent requests = 1. The macro will run first- sending the request, and then the first Intruder payload should be sent. Please let me know if this works for you.
