Can the F# HtmlProvider access password protected pages?

[Guest Mr Yossu]

I know how to grab data from a web page in F#...

 

[color=#101094][font=inherit]let[/font][/color][color=#303336][font=inherit] url = @[/font][/color][color=#7d2727][font=inherit]"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Who"[/font][/color][color=#303336][font=inherit]
[/font][/color][color=#101094][font=inherit]type[/font][/color][color=#303336][font=inherit] DoctorWhoData = HtmlProvider<url>
[/font][/color][color=#101094][font=inherit]let[/font][/color][color=#303336][font=inherit] data = DoctorWhoData.GetSample()[/font][/color]

 

...which is really neat, but I want to be able to do this for a password protected page. I can't seem to find any documentation on how to do this.

 

Anyone any suggestions? Thanks
