the code that constructs the AAI rest client doesn’t include the basicAuthUsername or basicAuthPassword builder methods, nor are there any properties for specifying the basic auth username/password for AAI.

 

 

    @Bean(name="aaiClient")

    public RestClient restClient()

{         *return* *new* RestClient()                 .validateServerHostname(*false*)                 .validateServerCertChain(*false*)                 .connectTimeoutMs(*this*.connectionTimeout)                 .readTimeoutMs(*this*.readTimeout);     }

 

However, I think this code was original adapted from an https client, with SSL certificates providing the necessary security.  I guess in the absence of SSL, basic auth is better than nothing.

 

The aai-context-builder is using basic auth in A&AI queries – that could easily be ported to service-decomposition.
