Hi All,

@Faij Ahmad - In the basic authentication policy following attribute <AssignTo createNew> is set to 'false' by default.

Therefore, the Edge UI shows 2 'request.header.Authorization' one empty and second one is the variable containing the Base64 encoded string which is just a concatenated value of the username and password passed as query param.

if you set <AssignTo createNew> to 'true', you will only see source variable containing the Base64 encoded string.

Hope this helps.
