Login/Session management?

[jdarling]

Any way to use with a system that has a login page with session cookies? This is a SPA built using AngularJS, so most of the resources are loaded when the login is loaded, but would like to see how the rest of the application rates once we are past the login page.

Good question. At the moment PageSpeed Insights doesn't support (afaik) pages that require authentication but I'll ask the PageSpeed team if this is planned for a future release.

+1 for this feature.

I'm one of the developers of the Insights API, and would like to understand what would be necessary to support this use case. Would providing cookies to be included with the requests made by PageSpeed be sufficient?

An additional caveat if this was supported: Insights is currently focused on analyzing the first view of a site. For pages behind a login, some of the speed analysis might not be optimal, since you may be able to count on having a warm cache.

+1. Cookies would be fine.

Any updates on this @danbathgate?

Basic auth and session handling are still missed options.

would be nice to have, our staging is under IAP so cannot integrate it during CI
