Hi everyone!
I need to add an OAI repository to OHS, but OAI have user and password. When I tried to add it, it said “he specified OAI URL is not valid. Please check the URL and try again.” because OHS doesn’t have space to add user and password. some idea?

Hi @jorgelpolanco,

Is this basic HTTP authentication? I haven’t tried this myself, but you may be able to put credentials into the URL, e.g.:

http://myusername:mypassword@www.mydomain.com/path/to/oai
