[Ftpapi] Basic authentication to web service and Postman



I am hoping someone can assist/advise as I am a little puzzled

We are working on a new project and using Postman to test web service calls and then this will be coded in RPG and use HTTPAPI.

In Postman we have set up the Authorization as "Basic Auth" and specified the values for User name and Password

When we "Send" the Get request it work ... Great!   But then looking at the generated HTTP I am confused as it appears the basic authorization has been converted to an authorization string

Can anyone advise how this conversion is done or why I am not seeing a User name and Password details in the header ?

GET /sydney/drivers?id=16551 HTTP/1.1
Host: sydney-api.icabbi.com
