Catalog URL Programmatic Logins

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am trying to acces the Catalog service remotely. At the moment it says authentication required. So far either providing a user name and passwort in HTML Loader / HTTP Post actions doesn't do the trick. Is there a parameter to be specified?

Using the same URL in a browser with a session works, so the url doesn't seem to be the problem.

Kind Regards,

Christoph Mertins

If you're using 12.1

http://server:port/XMII/Catalog?mode=ListFolders&j_user=username&j_password=userpw

if you're using 12.0 something like this should work

http://server:port/logon/logonServlet?j_user=username&j_password=userpw&redirectURL=/XMII/Catalog?mo...

you may to encode the symbols in the redirectURL.

Hi Jamie,

tried that for 12.0 that works.

Is there a document explaining the modes of the catalog service?

Have you tried &IllumLoginName=XXXX&IllumLoginPassword=YYYY in your URL (clear text of course)?

Don't forget &Session=false
