HTTP Basic Authentication¶
As implemented by Vinyl, HTTP Basic Authentication is a form of service account, meaning all Vinyl users authenticate with the same set of credentials. The credentials (user name and password) are defined at the data source level. HTTP Basic Authentication is typically used by default when credentials are supplied and no other authentication type is selected.
