ISIM Web Services LTPA Authentication with ISAM

  • 1.  ISIM Web Services LTPA Authentication with ISAM

    Posted Wed October 09, 2019 06:57 AM
    Hello all,

    We are developing a custom portal that manages ISIM operations by calling ISIM Web Services. The portal currently has username/password based authentication and the same username/password is passed to ISIM Web Services for session establishment.

    However, we now need to put the portal behind ISAM WebSEAL, so that the user already authenticated on WebSEAL should be able to use the portal for ISIM operations. For this, I have read about ISIM Web Services LTPA support for Single Sign-on.

    What I understand is that, in our portal, we need to fetch the LTPA token from the request, which is generated by WebSEAL and then insert it in the request that is being sent to ISIM for Web Service calls for session establishment. Is my understanding correct?

    Need advice on this whether this is possible and what should be the best way to achieve this?

    Best regards,
