I'm writing a program using C# that retrieves an open database and saves it into a spreadsheet. Even though the database is an open resource, the web requires a user to log in with a user name and a password. There are thousands of links in the database and it's very inconvenient to click each link to get the data I want. I'm trying to write a program that goes into each link for me automatically. However, I lost permission to access database after I go into html code, make a new link (because it only shows relative paths), and make a http request. It might be some digital signature hidden somewhere that I can't see. Can anyone point out how to get away with this issue?
