Parse login credentials using launch

Hello Community,

 

I do want to to launch an external website and want to to parse username+password.

As a start, i looked into the network tab of the develeoper tools of any browser when manually logging into that external website.

The request URL which i found there or its parameters is what i re-used in PowerApps function "Launch" in combination with a button to create the same login string:

 

code: Launch("https://abc.url.com/api/sessions"; {username:"abc";password:"123"};LaunchTarget.New)

 

After having configured this, I face the situation that a new browser tab is opening after clicking the button which starts the above described "Launch" function.

In the adress line of this new browser tab i can see exactly the same request URL like i have seen in the developer tools.

However, the browser window shows a white screen / completely empty / no error message.

My expectation is that a browser tab is opening where the full login process is finished.

 

Any ideas ?

 

Update:

I found out that every launch action is peformed with the "GET" method. The idea is to make the Launch action to be able to perform a POST request.
