  • 1.  REST request - SSO enabled authentication

    Posted 07/27/20 09:58 AM
    Hi All,

    We are trying to access https://hostname/maxrest/os/mxperson?personid='PERSONID'and _lid=USERNAME&_lpwd=PASSWORD
    The environment is using ADFS authentication.When we test the API using client ,we are getting the below error:

    function LoginErrors(){this.userNameFormatError = 'Enter your user ID in the format \u0026quot;domain\\user\u0026quot; or \u0026quot;user@domain\u0026quot;.'; this.passwordEmpty = 'Enter your password.'; this.passwordTooLong = 'Password is too long (\u0026gt; 128 characters).';}; var maxPasswordLength = 128;
    //]]&gt;</script>

    Tried passing the parameters using domain also.But still getting the same error .May I know if maxrest api supports SSO/LDAP authentication.
    If it supports ,what should be the format or any additional parameters required

    Thanks,
    Sreekala R

    In maximo-x (work centers) you can assign an api key to a user and then use it in REST call parameters.
    headers = { 'Accept': "application/json", Content-Type': "application/json"}
    params = { 'apikey':apikey }

    Hi Chris,

    Appreciate your help.I am using old gen maxrest api ,when I used url where SSO is not enabled (eg : MIF ) I was able to get the results 

    https://hostname/maxrest_mif/os/mxperson?personid='PERSONID'&_lid-USERNAME&_lpwd=PASSWORD

    Moreover we are using Maximo 7608 .I think api keys can be used in versions Maximo 7609 and later

    Thanks,
    Sreekala R
