Mixing
HTTP request in node.js returning response.statuscode as forbidden
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I want to POST data in a 3rd part website through node.js but I am getting the error 403.
I have this code in browser :
$.ajax("/login",{ /// here i am in https://255.255.255 /// I am obscuring the real host ip
data:{
username:"username",
password: "password",
autologin:"true"},
method:"POST"
}).done(function(msg) {
console.log( msg );
/// another $.ajax request here
});
It works fine. The problem starts when I try to use it in node.js, I got this code after some help of SO users :
var request = require('request');
request({
method: "POST",
baseUrl: "https://255.255.255",
uri: "/login",
form: {
username: "username",
password: "password",
autologin: "true"
}
},
function (error, httpResponse, body) {
if (error) {
console.error(error);
}
console.log(httpResponse.statusCode);
console.log(body);
});
Here I get httpResponse.statusCode as 403 - forbidden.
I was not expecting it because my $.ajax code works and does not return me this error.
What I've tried so far :
- set user-agent as "node.js", "request", "Mozilla/5.0"
- use axios ( also got the error 403 )
- use request-promise
also I would like to know :
- how to see both codes running to know whats the difference between each other
- more user-agents, and which one I've to use to simulate a browser
- if there is a better npm package to post data in 3rd part websites
Thanks in advance.

Maybe take a look at the response body of the failing HTTP request. It's possible that there's an error message.

Does the jQuery code actually send the username and password as plaintext, or is it using Authorization? You can check in the browser console when you make the request. Typically user/password are sent as an Authorization header, you'll see something like "Authorization: Basic " in the headers of the request.
If so, you'll need to replicate that in Node as well. You can check out the request documentation for more information how - it's quite simple.

Thanks. Your comment was actually very useful. I went to network tab in console then I saw my .ajax request and figured out that what is return 403 is their content-security-policy . Sadly I got a downvote and now I am banned from ask question SO. Could you suggest me a npm package where I can simulate an origin for my request ?
