    Hi Zouhair benchettab,

    From v5.0 the default authentication uses a Bearer Token for the authentication.
    Prior to v5.0 Digest or Basic authentication could be used.

    Basic authentication has been deprecated completely, but you still could use Digest authentication as described in THIS support article.

    Hi team,

    I still can't call the client and access the cloud by this format:

    nx-vms://age.nxvms.com/client/d0b73d03-3e2e-405d-8226-019c83b13a08?auth=YWJyYTprYWRhYnJh

    nx-vms://age.nxvms.com/client/d0b73d03-3e2e-405d-8226-019c83b13a08/view?auth=YWJyYTprYWRhYnJh

    Are you  going to solve this issue in the next patch ?

    You can't disable or remove features that worked in previous versions, you can improve them but not remove them.

    Many of our customers, such as alarm centers, use this function so that operators can access the nx witness server through Nx cloud without introducing credential manually.

    Hi Zouhair benchettab,

    We removed Basic authentication completely due to security reasons and will never return in future patches.

    But as mentioned, you still can use the Digest authentication as described in the linked support article. 
    Bearer authentication became the default setting since it is more secure, and I strongly recommend improving your integration to support Bearer authentication. I don't rule out that Digest authentication will be disabled in future versions as well.
