SAPUI5 Anonymous Login

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I've developed an UI5 application on webide. And I want to have anonymous user login for my application. According to this post, I need to set "authenticationMethod": "none". But it didn't work for me. Any idea what other alternatives can be used?

Make sure you can access your app from the URL displayed in the application page. For example, https://yourhanaurl.com/index.html. Otherwise the URL may be treated as a inactive version and a SAML authorization will still be required.

See note "Even if authentication is disabled, authentication is still required for accessing inactive application versions." in SAP Cloud Platform Guide

If authenticationeMethod: none is not working, maybe you can have a user as anonymous name for all public users, and use that for all anonymous/public activities. Just a suggestion.

Hello Jonas, "authenticationMethod": "none" is exactly what you need. This is also what documentation says https://help.hana.ondemand.com/help/aed1ffa3f3e741b3a4573c9e475aa2a4.html

Maybe you still try your app from WebIDE? Did you try to publish it and access it by direct URL instead?

Regards,

Anton
