I need to perform one app that is signed in via login.microsoftonline.com, but I get this error "We can`t sign you in your browser is currently set to block cookies. you need to allow cookies to use this service." maybe someone else has experienced something similar.
I tried changing HTTP Cookie Manager type from standart to others, also I used CookieManager.save.cookies with true and false but nothing worked.
HTTP Cookie Manager

You're not supposed to have the request to login.microsoftonline.com as the very first request in your JMeter script.
My expectation is that you're trying to test an application which uses Microsoft Identity Platform as authentication provider so depending on your application auth flow you need to pass some parameters to this login.microsoftonline.com page and the parameters need to be extracted from the previous request.
So try starting with your application login page and I believe you should be redirected to the login.microsoftonline.com with valid cookies and appropriate parameters

So I currently have all my requests set up in postman and to be able to make the request to my api I first need to go to the Authorization tab and click "Get Access Token" then a new window appears showing the log in screen from the Identity Server where I can enter the correct username and password to obtain the access token.
I am now wanting to use Postman to test my api however when the access token expires the tests of course fail.
What I want to know is the best way to approach setting up a script that could run the authorization before that request/tests are run.
I can see lots of examples if you only use ClientId and Secret however our Identity Server also requires the user to log in with username and password as that information is needed so that the Identity Info can be included in the returned token as the api called in the request uses this to determine which user to return data for.
Really hitting a brick wall here as I cannot see a way to automate the identity login.
How do others deal with running automated tests against an api protected with IdentityServer login?
You would have to mimic the set of requests and responses that would normally go through the browser. For example, you first make an authorization request. The server responds with a 302 to a login page. You can grab the location header and call the login page. Then you would post the username and password to the login form's action, etc.
You can have a look at this example: https://github.com/curityio/token-handler-node-express/blob/master/test/login.sh this is a set of curl commands which perform such login to an instance of the Curity Identity Server.
You should be able to script it as a series of requests in Postman.
My application has a microsoft authentication on it before logging into it & I have recorded script but when I am running it, it is showing me access denied error everytime.I have set authentication manager but still same error. See image attached.
I have tried HTTP Authentication Manager & provided login username & password.
Most probably your application uses OAuth therefore it is neither something you can really record and replay nor handle with the HTTP Authorization Manager.
Depending on your application setup you will either need:
To perform correlation of the query parameters
Or to pass the relevant Authorization Bearer token via HTTP Header Manager. The process of obtaining the token can be different depending on your application login chain implementation, check out How to Run Performance Tests on OAuth Secured Apps with JMeter article to get a couple of ideas regarding bypassing 3rd-party provider login challenge in JMeter tests.
Check if you can provide the auth credentials as parameter of the requests.
for example www.abc.com?username=abc&password=abc. Replicate the same with Jmeter
Use Fiddler (or you can get away with browser dev tools if you don't mind searching manually) and log in manually via your browser.
Check the request(s) that are submitted to Microsoft for tokens/GUIDs and search for where the browser got those strings from (it'll be in one of the previous requests' responses' bodies or redirect URLs. In Fiddler you can use the find function on responses, browser dev tools you'll have to find it manually).
You can then use a JMeter Regular Expression Extractor post-processor (or any of the other post processors you prefer) to extract that string from the earlier request into a variable.
In your login request you can then use the value of that variable (if you used regular expression post-processor with a capture group the first group's value will be ${variable_g1}
You'll probably have an anti-forgery value that you can extract from the HTML of the login page which needs to be submitted with the username and password and then in the response you'll get a cookie set and potentially JWT token in the response body/URL.
I am using identityserver4 for all configured clients with "AccesssTokenType=1" i.e. reference type.
I have one web app hosted for server, and other one for clients.
I used default identityserver settings, which generated two cookie, one for session Id "idsrv.session", and other one for authentication "idsrv".
In logout I do signout
await HttpContext.SignOutAsync(IdentityServerConstants.ExternalCookieAuthenticationScheme);
await HttpContext.SignOutAsync(IdentityServerConstants.DefaultCookieAuthenticationScheme);
however it gives error when I call with "idsrv.session"
await HttpContext.SignOutAsync(IdentityServerConstants.DefaultCheckSessionCookieName);
Issue / Steps to reproduce the problem
1st Iteration : Login on my client website which redirects to my identityserver application. I now interceprt the request and response using "Burp Suite". I copy the complete response which has redirect URL's and cookie details.
I signout/logout from client website.
2nd Iteration : I tried login again, and intercepted the request and response using Burp Suite, by passing wrong credential. While Intercepting the response I just copied the cookies from previous request (which was successful in my first iteration), and observe that identityserver has successfully validated the user using the cookie value, ignoring the wrong credentials in this iteration.
Even I tried invalidating and deleting cookies in my signout/logout method, but looks like identityserver still recognises it as the valid ones.
Brock Allen directed me to the corrrect solution. According to him :
This is the real issue you're asking about -- when you signout, you want the cookie to no longer be valid, even in the scenario when it's stolen and replayed. This is not something IdentityServer can address, because we use Microsoft's cookie authentication to achieve signin. You would have to fix this by changing the default usage of their component. You can do it by implementing "server-side cookie" (a term that I dislike) by implementing an ITicketStore: https://github.com/aspnet/Security/blob/master/src/Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Cookies/CookieAuthenticationOptions.cs#L136

I have internal web application, which I have to test using Jmeter.
The application has secure protections as a username, password and auth token.
Auth token is changing with every new session. I'm unable to path through secure token. Token is include in URL, which look like
http://mytraining.application.net/(S(vj1ckr0nqyvjq3blehcl2jwl))/ApplDefault.aspx?tabid=1. Cookies has look like
Cookie: AUTH_TOK_vj1ckr0nqyvjq3blehcl2jwl=vj1ckr0nqyvjq3blehcl2jwl; AUTH_TOK_syq3r1yu4equ515xzunjobhb=syq3r1yu4equ515xzunjobhb;
So, my Jmeter able to successfully run only when I submit current token in URL.
Please let me know if you have any idea, how to avoid submitting token in all places (35) every time.

My AUTH_TOKEN
Regular Expression
It seems you can figure you your Auth_TOK value from the cookies
Add the next line to user.properties file (located in JMeter's "bin" folder
CookieManager.save.cookies=true
Restart JMeter to pick the property up
Add HTTP Cookie Manager to your Test Plan
Now you should be able to see Cookies stored as JMeter Variables using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination and use cookies values as part of your URL
I would also recommend checking out ASP.NET Login Testing with JMeter as my expectation is that you will have to deal with few other dynamic parameters.
First try with HTTP Cookie Manager as mentioned by Dmitri. This would work if auth token is used in Headers, like Cookie header. Jmeter automatically fetches from Set-Cookie Header, set by server, (when you add HTTP Cookie Manager) for each thread and store it locally, so that it can use in subsequent requests.
If Auth token is used in other places (but not headers) such as part of Url, request body etc, then we should explicitly capture it using Regular Expression Extractor (post processor) and
Regular Expressions Jmeter to correlate the dynamic values. Once you capture the value into a local_variable, we replace the actual values by local_variable (Reference name field in Regular Expression Extractor) wherever we observe the dynamic value in subsequent requests, here auth token, using syntax ${local_variable}.
normally browser stores and adds authentication header automaticly after successfull authentication.
I have a XMLHttpRequest and added the authentication header for basic auth. No problem at all.
Then I try to send a second request to the same url that is basic http protected without adding manually the http request header to this request. Poorly it seems that the browser is not storing the authentication provided in request 1. My goal is to add the authentication handler transparently to every request that follows the first one (like a native browser do).
Any idea? Thanks.
Browser only storing authetication requested from user. So, if you send 1st request w/o authentication fields, browser will prompt user for auth this time, remember credentials and use it for next requests transparently.
