      Issue Summary

      When a Webhook integration is configured with a URL containing user info and password is rejected with an error "Request URI authority contains deprecated userinfo component"

      This issue behaviour is noticed on existing Webhook URLs that were working previously with the same URL content.

      This is reproducible on Data Center: (yes) / (no) Yes

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a Webhook integration Settings > Integration > Add integration (Or with Team integrations)  and add a Webhook URL(that contains user info and password) https://user:password@example.net
      2. Try to send a post request for the Opsgenie alert activity for the Webhook URL
      3. It is failing with the error
      Could not send [postToUrl] action to Webhook [a webhook] after 2 retries. Reason: I/O error on POST request for "https://user:password@example.net": Request URI authority contains deprecated userinfo component 

      Expected Results

      Previously this was working without any issues.

      Actual Results

      Able to send the post request to the Webhook URL

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
