Description

Description

As far as I understood the code it is currently only possible to start an async file upload from a secured remote URL if the endpoint supports username + password authentication method by passing the URL in the format of https://<username>:<password>@url.com. It would be great to enhance this functionality to also be able to authenticate by e.g. Bearer. Any plans to support this?

Research direction

Start by tracing the async file-upload handling for secured remote URLs and locate where username/password credentials embedded in the URL are processed. Review existing authentication tests, then determine the supported bearer-authentication behavior and add coverage showing that the requested remote upload succeeds with it.
