Hi Moses,

the only SSO methods I know when using the appintegrator is basic authentication, logonticket or x.509.

Moreover, if you want to authenticate by http header, you would have to establish a SSL connection between your portal and the external web application.

The request method don't matter in this context.

@subratu: I think it's obvious that your post is NOT helpful.

I just thought about it again.

The only thing would be to write an own portal component, that injects the userid as http header variable, starts a server side request and renders the external content in an iframe. The connection has to be secure, that's definite.

After the first request, the user is authenticated in your external application and when you click a link, all your following requests are rendered in the iframe.

The best thing would be to choose a different authentication method for the external web application.

Just some thoughts.

Hi Moses,

you have to clarify this with the guys that set up the IIS. Usually the userid should be filtered out by the web server due to security reasons (http sniffing, header injection).

Hi

you should use appinegrator and select the iview for wingui and oviously use post method because you are limiting query string by using get method

Hope this helps
