About Basic Authentication

Please note that this extension does not collect, store or process your private information as well as it does not collect any analytics data. Basic authentication credentials are stored locally on your machine and they are not synchronized with any external service. Any saved data will be lost once extension will be uninstalled. You are using at your own risk. ---------- Basic authentication is widely used for many staging environments. With this extension you can automate the logging process with a few easy steps. If you don't need specific domain settings just put your credentials at the very beginning of your work and don't worry about Basic Auth prompt window anymore. At any time you can use "Advanced settings" to provide more credentials for specific domains. ---------- Last changes: - Manifest 3 update - Removed proxy support - Code refactoring In order to improve your experience please report bugs and issues!
