APIRequest

Exposes API that can be used for the Web API testing. This class is used for creating APIRequestContext instance which in turn can be used for sending web requests. An instance of this class can be obtained via Playwright.APIRequest. For more information see APIRequestContext.

Methods

NewContextAsync

Added in: v1.16 apiRequest.NewContextAsync

Creates new instances of APIRequestContext.

Usage

await ApiRequest.NewContextAsync(options);

Arguments

• options ApiRequestNewContextOptions? (optional)

  • BaseURL string? (optional)#

    Methods like ApiRequestContext.GetAsync() take the base URL into consideration by using the URL() constructor for building the corresponding URL. Examples:

    • baseURL: http://localhost:3000 and sending request to /bar.html results in http://localhost:3000/bar.html
    • baseURL: http://localhost:3000/foo/ and sending request to ./bar.html results in http://localhost:3000/foo/bar.html
    • baseURL: http://localhost:3000/foo (without trailing slash) and navigating to ./bar.html results in http://localhost:3000/bar.html

  • ClientCertificates IEnumerable?<ClientCertificates> (optional) Added in: 1.46#

    • Origin string

      Exact origin that the certificate is valid for. Origin includes https protocol, a hostname and optionally a port.

    • CertPath string? (optional)

      Path to the file with the certificate in PEM format.

    • Cert byte[]? (optional)

      Direct value of the certificate in PEM format.

    • KeyPath string? (optional)

      Path to the file with the private key in PEM format.

    • Key byte[]? (optional)

      Direct value of the private key in PEM format.

    • PfxPath string? (optional)

      Path to the PFX or PKCS12 encoded private key and certificate chain.

    • Pfx byte[]? (optional)

      Direct value of the PFX or PKCS12 encoded private key and certificate chain.

    • Passphrase string? (optional)

      Passphrase for the private key (PEM or PFX).

    TLS Client Authentication allows the server to request a client certificate and verify it.

    Details

    An array of client certificates to be used. Each certificate object must have either both certPath and keyPath, a single pfxPath, or their corresponding direct value equivalents (cert and key, or pfx). Optionally, passphrase property should be provided if the certificate is encrypted. The origin property should be provided with an exact match to the request origin that the certificate is valid for.

    备注

    When using WebKit on macOS, accessing localhost will not pick up client certificates. You can make it work by replacing localhost with local.playwright.

  • ExtraHTTPHeaders IDictionary?<string, string> (optional)#

    An object containing additional HTTP headers to be sent with every request. Defaults to none.

  • FailOnStatusCode bool? (optional) Added in: v1.51#

    Whether to throw on response codes other than 2xx and 3xx. By default response object is returned for all status codes.

  • HttpCredentials HttpCredentials? (optional)#

    • Username string

    • Password string

    • Origin string? (optional)

      Restrain sending http credentials on specific origin (scheme://host:port).

    • Send enum HttpCredentialsSend { Unauthorized, Always }? (optional)

      This option only applies to the requests sent from corresponding APIRequestContext and does not affect requests sent from the browser. 'always' - Authorization header with basic authentication credentials will be sent with the each API request. 'unauthorized - the credentials are only sent when 401 (Unauthorized) response with WWW-Authenticate header is received. Defaults to 'unauthorized'.

    Credentials for HTTP authentication. If no origin is specified, the username and password are sent to any servers upon unauthorized responses.

  • IgnoreHTTPSErrors bool? (optional)#

    Whether to ignore HTTPS errors when sending network requests. Defaults to false.

  • MaxRedirects int? (optional) Added in: v1.52#

    Maximum number of request redirects that will be followed automatically. An error will be thrown if the number is exceeded. Defaults to 20. Pass 0 to not follow redirects. This can be overwritten for each request individually.

  • Proxy Proxy? (optional)#

    • Server string

      Proxy to be used for all requests. HTTP and SOCKS proxies are supported, for example http://myproxy.com:3128 or socks5://myproxy.com:3128. Short form myproxy.com:3128 is considered an HTTP proxy.

    • Bypass string? (optional)

      Optional comma-separated domains to bypass proxy, for example ".com, chromium.org, .domain.com".

    • Username string? (optional)

      Optional username to use if HTTP proxy requires authentication.

    • Password string? (optional)

      Optional password to use if HTTP proxy requires authentication.

    Network proxy settings.

  • StorageState string? (optional)#

    Populates context with given storage state. This option can be used to initialize context with logged-in information obtained via BrowserContext.StorageStateAsync() or ApiRequestContext.StorageStateAsync(). Either a path to the file with saved storage, or the value returned by one of BrowserContext.StorageStateAsync() or ApiRequestContext.StorageStateAsync() methods.

  • StorageStatePath string? (optional) Added in: v1.18#

    Populates context with given storage state. This option can be used to initialize context with logged-in information obtained via BrowserContext.StorageStateAsync(). Path to the file with saved storage state.

  • Timeout [float]? (optional)#

    Maximum time in milliseconds to wait for the response. Defaults to 30000 (30 seconds). Pass 0 to disable timeout.

  • UserAgent string? (optional)#

    Specific user agent to use in this context.

Returns

• APIRequestContext#
