Authentication on Web Service

[Former Member]

Hi,

I would like to know how includes the params for authentication in WSDL.

I did a example, but i had to fill user and password on box of authentication of the Internet Explorer when Web Service went executed and our costumer don't want to inform to yours users this user and password.

Thanks.

Hi,

You could use Single Sign On where it will never prompt the user to enter user name or password and also as suggested in the previous post you could use some default name and password so that all users can use the webservice...

Thanks..

Jo,

I already tried put this tags in soap, but didn't work. Any more idea?

Preetham,

We are calling Web Service by Java Class... I'm using HttpURLConnection... When i run Java Programm, occurs a 401 error. Is there a restriction with HttpURLConnection?

Thanks for your help.

can you try:

URLConnection uc= url.openConnection();
uc.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic " + Base64.encode(username + ":" + password));

hi bruno,

you can try setting the credentials on the soap header.

<SOAP-ENV:Header>
<tns:UserCredentials xmlns:tns="http://xxxx.com/xxxService/">
<tns:UserName>userName</tns:UserName>
<tns:Password>userPwd</tns:Password>
</tns:UserCredentials>
</SOAP-ENV:Header>

im not sure if this would work on your case, but might worth a try.
