How to disable authentication when exposing interfaces as web service

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I have a perculiar question:

I have a synchronous interface:

SOAP -> XI -> RFC --> XI -> SOAP

I generated the WSDL by using Integration Directory -> Tools -> Define Web Service.

Normally, I can invoke the webservice using SOAP Client, but I have to enter the userid/pwd. - PIAPPLUSER.

My question is:

How do I disable the authentication?

Please help.

Thanks.

Follow the answer by William Li in this thread to turen of SOAP authentication for Sender SOAP adapter,

But, this will cause an issue that it willturn off the user id and password check for all SOAP requestposted to XI. Not recommended at all.

Thanks all.

I've managed to overcome this, by changing the SOAPAdapter sda file.

I'll be putting in the login mechanism after our SIT.

I have a question:

With the login mechanism in place, will performance be affected? Assuming every request into XI requires a login, I have doubts about its performance.

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

r u really using sender adapter or r u posting directly into integration server pipeline?

anyways, its not advised to remove this authentication, since you will forcely remove authentication to the pipeline itself (and some other service entries, that should not be accessed).
