The first part of this section goes through the steps of the Post-recording wizard and describes the elements related to basic and NTLM authentication. In most situations the wizard does the whole job on its own and you just have to confirm what the wizard has detected and decided. The second part of this section details the configuration elements the wizard has created and the information you will need to provide.
The first two steps of the Post-recording wizard are left aside to focus on step 3. This is where basic and NTLM authentication information is used and can be configured through the wizard. The example is based on basic authentication but the NTLM authentication procedure is identical.

authentication parameters. The "Accounts" variable has two columns: the first column, ${Accounts.login}
, must contain login values; the second, ${Accounts.password}
, must contain password values.During the recording phase NeoLoad automatically detects basic or NTLM Authentication and correctly configures the Authorization
elements of the server. As detailed previously, the Post-recording wizard configures and links Authorization
elements to a variable.
For example, your server may use basic authentication. The wizard has detected this and has configured the Authorization panel accordingly by adding a line with type

information. The login and password are both linked to values of a variable called "Accounts". More precisely, the login is linked to the ${Accounts.login}
expression and the password
to the ${Accounts.password}
expression.
