Hi,

I want to execute a graph using the simple http api from a java code. However I am not sure how to pass the clover username and password to this url for authentication. - http://:/clover/simpleHttpApi/graph\_run?sandbox=&graphID=graph/Baseline.grf&verbose=FULL

Please help.

Thanks,  
Alaka

Hi Alaka,

URL should look like:

```auto

http://login:password@server:port/clover/request_processor/graph_status?runID=1

```

See for details:

I hope this helps.
