Hi, guys!

I’m creating module for Wowza. It’s simple module that will send username/ password to my site . Now I think – how I can get user password from Wirecast? I can get username but password…

As I understand, AuthenticateUsernamePasswordProviderExample don’t work with Wirecast.

Please, help me.

Regards, Roman.

Hi Roman,

You said, " I can get username but password…". So, why does that not provide the solution?

A user posted some code to parse URL params. There are also Wowza tutorials with examples of this.

Please clarify if you need more help.

You can use moduleRTMPAuthenticate from the [MediaSecurity package](https://www.wowza.com/docs/media-security-overview).

You can also override Publish to get “QueryString”. Here’s an example: [ModuleOnConnectAuthenticate2](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-do-file-based-rtmp-authentication-with-url-query-strings-onconnectauthenticate2).

```auto
public void onConnect(IClient client, RequestFunction function, AMFDataList params)
  {
         String[] qs =client.getQueryStr().split("&");
         getLogger().info(qs[0]);
}

```

output - “null”

Don’t work 😕

```auto
public void onConnect(IClient client, RequestFunction function, AMFDataList params) 
	{
		
		String userName = getParamString(params, PARAM1);
		String password = getParamString(params, PARAM2);
                getLogger().info(userName+password);
        }

```

output “nullnull”

Don’t work 😕

What I’m doing wrong?

I use Wirecast /FM 1.0 with Wowza Media Server 3.1.1

I need only username and password that user set to Wirecast credentials…
