    <p>I'm trying to write a simple script that fetches text from a webpage and processes that string. But, that website requires me to be logged in. I was successful in logging in to that website. This is how I logged in:</p> <pre><code>var payload = {"name1":"val1","name2":val2"}; var opt ={"payload":payload,"method":"post"}; var respose = UrlFetchApp.fetch("http://website.com/login",opt); </code></pre> <p>After logging in, the website places me in <code>http://website.com/home</code>. I checked <code>response.getContentText()</code> and I can confirm that I have been logged in successfully as it contains the text from <code>http://website.com/home</code>. Now I need to get the contents of <code>http://website.com/page</code> and process it. I first assumed the script can handle cookies by itself and proceeded with </p> <pre><code>var pagedata = UrlFetchApp.fetch("http://website.com/page);//Did not work </code></pre> <p>That obviously didnt work and <code>pagedata.getContentText()</code> says me to login first, which indicates cookies were not successfully passed..</p> <p>I then tried to extract cookies which the server responded during login and to send it along with this request.</p> <pre><code>var cookie = response.getAllHeaders()['Set-Cookie']; // variable cookie now contains a legitimate cookie. // It contains 'JSESSIONID=blabla;Path=/' and // it is the ONLY cookie that server responds. </code></pre> <p>I tried to send that cookie in my page request.</p> <pre><code>var header = {'Cookie':cookie}; var opt2 = {"header":header}; var pagedata = UrlFetchApp.fetch("http://website.com/page",opt2); </code></pre> <p>I think even now cookies were not properly sent, as the content again says me to login.</p> <p>Am I passing cookies correctly? I need help regarding the correct method of sending cookies in a request.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
