From https://framework.zend.com/manual/2.4/en/modules/zend.http.client.advanced.html#http-authentication

Answer 2

it works now, but with curl :
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_URL => $url,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "POST",
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => "param1=value1",
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
"cache-control: no-cache",
"content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
"password: password01",
"user: user01"
),
));
$response = curl_exec($curl);
$err = curl_error($curl);
curl_close($curl);
if ($err) {
echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
} else {
echo $response;
}
