cy.request() crashes the framework when using digest authentication

[hyuan-mongo]

Current behavior

When using cy.request() with digest authentication, following supported auth options mentioned in the cypress documentation

        cy.request({
            method: 'GET',
            url: "https://postman-echo.com/digest-auth",
            auth: {
                username: 'postman',
                password: 'password',
                sendImmediately: false,
            },
        }).then((resp) => {
            expect(resp.status).to.eq(200)
        })

the test crashes cypress with error

Desired behavior

cy.request() should return http 200 response. using request module as an example to send the same request

const request = require('@cypress/request');

var options = {
    method: 'get',
    url: 'https://postman-echo.com/digest-auth',
    auth: {
        username: 'postman',
        password: 'password',
        sendImmediately: false,
    },
};

request.get(options, function(error, response, body){
    console.log('body : ' + body)
    // body : {
    //     "authenticated": true
    // }
});

hi cypress team, any updates on this? were you able to reproduce the bug?

[David-Mueller]

Same issue on our side, also need the sendImmediately: false config!

[cypress-app-bot]

This issue has not had any activity in 180 days. Cypress evolves quickly and the reported behavior should be tested on the latest version of Cypress to verify the behavior is still occurring. It will be closed in 14 days if no updates are provided.
