Add ASP.NET web service while impersonating credentials.

Question

I have a web reference that I do not have access to through my windows credentials, but do through impersonation. Unfortunately, I cannot update or add the reference because of my lack of credentials. When the service is added, it works fine when I set impersonation to true and add credentials.

Is there a way to impersonate a credentials when adding/updating a web service reference through the GUI?

Answer 1

I solved this by clicking on Visual Studio and clicking run-as, then entering the credentials I wanted to impersonate. After that I was able to update my service.
