How to include GeoServer WMS with credentials

[PentamapFlorian]

My included GeoServer WMS RasterLayer was working without problems, until I added authentication/credentials to my GeoServer. Whenever I call my tileUrl https://username:[email protected]/... I get following error on Android Devices:

'Mapbox error', 'Map load failed: {tile-id={x=8, y=5, z=4}, type=tile, message=Failed to load tile: HTTP status code 401, begin=70787167510, source-id=...}', { level: 'error',
tag: 'RCTMGLMapView',
message: 'Map load failed: {tile-id={x=8, y=5, z=4}, type=tile, message=Failed to load tile: HTTP status code 401, begin=70787167510, source-id=...}' }

The WMS is showing up without errors on iOS devices. The credentials are correct.

Is there any setting I am missing? Do I have to use something like:

transformRequest: (url, resourceType)=> {
if(resourceType === 'Source' && url.startsWith('http://myHost')) {
return {
url: url.replace('http', 'https'),
headers: { 'my-custom-header': true},
credentials: 'include' // Include cookies for cross-origin requests
}
}

Help is kindly apreciated.

Best regards,
Florian
