Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Ivan Necas 2017-05-19 15:21:35 UTC 
Session authentication doesn't work with restclient 1.8 that we use on production installs.
The authenticator expects http request to have uri set but this change was introduced post 1.8.

Upstream bug assigned to tstrachota
Comment 4 Satellite Program 2017-05-19 16:04:49 UTC 
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/19159 has been resolved.
Comment 6 Martin Bacovsky 2017-08-02 11:32:11 UTC 
Verified.
Version Tested: Satellite-6.3 Snap 8

It is possible to use session auth in Hammer with RestClient (1.8.0) we ship with Satellite. 

# rpm -qa|grep rest-cli
rubygem-rest-client-1.6.7-7.el7sat.noarch
tfm-rubygem-rest-client-1.8.0-4.el7sat.noarch

Session auth is off by default and needs to turned on manually:

# grep sessions /etc/hammer/cli.modules.d/foreman.yml 
  :use_sessions: true

# hammer -d organization list
[ INFO 2017-08-02 07:24:02 Init] Initialization of Hammer CLI (0.10.2) has started...
