Getting Authorization required

[ayushi-nyk]

I have below selenium version 4 and io.appium version 8 java client dependency in same pom.xml -

org.seleniumhq.selenium selenium-java 4.0.0 , io.appium java-client 8.0.0

When I able to run app test on browser stack then getting below error - Exception e === org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Could not start a new session. Unable to parse remote response: Authorization required

However this issue was not happening when I was using selenium 3.1 and appium 7.6 .

All I want is to upgrade the selenium version 4 in my framework and we have common framework for web and app.

Please suggest.

Please follow migration guides, for Appium you can find the guide here: https://github.com/appium/java-client/blob/master/docs/v7-to-v8-migration-guide.md

@ayushi-nyk most likely you provided wrong credentials, or used improper way to provide credentials

[ayushi-nyk]

@valfirst The same is working fine when i used selenium 3.1 and appium 7.6 . Is this something related to appium and selenium version compatibility .

[valfirst]

@ayushi-nyk Appium Java Client follows semantic versioning, it means bump of major version may introduce breaking changes

[Liandro73]

@ayushi-nyk I was with the same issue in a recent project, but I am actually studying about the new versions of Appium and Selenium, and I am really focused in this project, and I found your issue, but yet without a fix. Please for this new format using new Selenium and Appium, try this values:

Replace: user to userName key to accessKey

        if (platform.equals("DEVICE_FARM")) {  
            MutableCapabilities capabilities = new MutableCapabilities();
            capabilities.setCapability("app", "bs://??????");

            HashMap<String, Object> browserstackOptions = new HashMap<String, Object>();
            browserstackOptions.put("userName", userName);
            browserstackOptions.put("accessKey", accessKey);
            browserstackOptions.put("osVersion", "13.0");
            browserstackOptions.put("deviceName", "Google Pixel 7");
            browserstackOptions.put("projectName", "Project Name");
            browserstackOptions.put("buildName", "1.0");
            browserstackOptions.put("sessionName", "Session Name");
            browserstackOptions.put("appiumVersion", "2.0.0");
            browserstackOptions.put("local", "false");
            browserstackOptions.put("debug", "true");
            browserstackOptions.put("timezone", "New_York");
            capabilities.setCapability("bstack:options", browserstackOptions);

            androidDriver = new AndroidDriver
                              (new URL("http://hub.browserstack.com/wd/hub"), capabilities);
            androidDriver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(Duration.ofSeconds(SHORT_TIMEOUT));
            waitDriver = new WebDriverWait(androidDriver, Duration.ofSeconds(LONG_TIMEOUT));
        }

Hi @Liandro73, how can i put more devices? I hope u can help me

[Liandro73]

Hi @Salchi12, you can use a browserstack.yml file to send parallel tests:

userName: yourUser
accessKey: yourPass
framework: testng
app: bs://sample.app
platforms:
  - platformName: android
    deviceName: Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra
    platformVersion: 12.0
  - platformName: android
    deviceName: Google Pixel 7 Pro
    platformVersion: 13.0
  - platformName: android
    deviceName: OnePlus 9
    platformVersion: 11.0
browserstackLocal: true
buildName: 0.1.0
projectName: Project Name

[Salchi12]

@Liandro73 but when i use the yml file and the execution throws me test with diferent devices I choose

[Liandro73]

@Salchi12 You know that BrowserStack has a list of possible devices to choose from, right? Try this link to verify the devices and OS version, before to set your test execution: https://www.browserstack.com/automate/capabilities?tag=selenium-4
