Brave Software › Brave › HTTP authentication
List of origins allowing all HTTP authentication
Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later
What it does
Setting the policy specifies for which origins to allow all the HTTP authentication schemes Brave supports regardless of the AuthSchemes policy. Format the origin pattern according to this format (https://support.google.com/chrome/a?p=url_blocklist_filter_format). Up to 1,000 exceptions can be defined in AllHttpAuthSchemesAllowedForOrigins. Wildcards are allowed for the host component (e.g., '*:8000' matches all hosts on port 8000). To match all schemes or all ports, omit the component entirely (e.g., 'example.com' matches any scheme and any port). A hostname (e.g., 'example.com') also matches its subdomains. To match a host exactly and exclude its subdomains, prepend it with a dot (e.g., '.example.com'). To match all origins, use a single asterisk ('*'). Example value: https://example.com example.com *:8000 *
