The basic usage of HttpURLConnection.

Most people prefer to use Apache HttpClient (or if you are at
Java 11 then the new builtin HttpClient).

But all the above seems a bit mixed up.

It seem like:
* you want to call a web service and get some JSON data back
* you actually call a login page

What do you want to do?

Web service call should be pretty straight forward.

Login is usually also simple, but not for ASP.NET web forms, which
it looks like you are trying to access.
