You can try CL_HTTP_CLIENT class for this. Not sure your exact requirement, but you could give a try. There is an instance method IF_HTTP_CLIENT~AUTHENTICATE to send the user id password. If your URL supports, it might work.

Rest of some sample coding. May be helpful for you.

DATA : lr_client TYPE REF TO if_http_client.

CALL METHOD cl_http_client=>CREATE_BY_URL

EXPORTING

url = lv_url

* SERVICE = '80'

* SCHEME = '1'

* PROXY_HOST = WF_PROXY

* PROXY_SERVICE = WF_PORT

IMPORTING

client = lr_client.

CALL METHOD lr_client->request->set_header_field

EXPORTING

name = '~request_method'

value = 'POST'.

CALL METHOD lr_client->request->set_header_field

EXPORTING

name = '~server_protocol'

value = 'HTTP/1.1'.

CALL METHOD lr_client->request->set_header_field

EXPORTING

name = '~url'

value = lv_url.

CALL METHOD lr_client->send

EXCEPTIONS

http_communication_failure = 1

http_invalid_state = 2.
