Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/229

The send button is deactivated when url is:
https:user:password-@api.domain.fr
when password is ending with special character (i.e " - "), the url is considered invalid, one can't make a request.

Everything is working fine when entering:
https:user:password@api.domain.fr
or
https:user:password-pwd@api.domain.fr

Error when - at the end of password

The send button should be active e.g

I couldn't reproduce the bug. By the way, I don't think the URL you mentioned seems to a valid url at all.

I think @seyuf meant to send username and password together with the URL in this form:
http://username:password@example.com

If there's - at the end of the password, for example http://username:password-@example.com, Postwoman will consider the URL invalid, thus disabling the send button.

You can achieve the same thing by using Basic Type Authentication function. Type
in username and password in the field and just use http://example.com in the URL instead.
