I noticed this library supports only basic username/password authentication.
Although JSReport supports OAuth2 authentication (link), this SDK/client does not allow to interface with a JSReport instance which is configured that way.
I tought I could quickly make a PR for this, but the current dependency on .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Framework 4.5 prohibit me from using IdentityModel.AspNetCore, which greatly simplifies implementing OAuth2 client credentials grant flow using HttpClient.
I see 2 options:
Upgrade dependency to at least .NET core 3.1 (although I would suggest immediately going to .NET 6, which is the current LTS release), and use IdentityModel.AspNetCore to easily implement Oauth2 client credentials grant flow
Remove custom initialization of HttpClient insize ReportingService class, and obtain a HttpClient instance through DI. This would allow us to pre-configure a HttpClient for the ReportingService class, which would in turn allow is to add a token management handler using IdentityModel.AspNetCore in our external code.
I prefer the first option, if you agree I can work on a PR for this.

Hi, thank you for your activity. I'm definitely interested.
I'm not sure if I want to already limit the reach and remove the .netstadnard 2.0 and net 45 targets. There are likely still apps that use this client and don't want to update.
However please prototype the solution with IdentityModel.AspNetCore and .net 6 and we will then decide how we can release it.
We can decide to really stop supporting the older targets, ship your part in extra package, or we can multitarget this package with compile conditions
#if NET5_0
new IdentityModel.AspNetCore.AccessTokenRequestSynchronization()
#endif
