webservice-pi-webservice approach needed with authentication.

[allamudi_loordh]

Hi all,

In our scenario, we need to propagate user context from a .net web service to another .net web service via PI 7.3. Please suggest some options to achieve this. (multiple users have muliple logon credentials)..this is actually 3 level check .. suppose sender service one check ,PI side one check and reciever side one check. suggesions are required for approach.

thanks,

Allamudi Loordh.

The below document gives idea about principal propagation in 7.1 and 7.0. I dont know what we have in 7.3.

I think it is possible non sap or sap inbound to sap outbound scenarios using Prinicipal Propagation. At PI inbound side any authentication mechanism is possible whereas on the PI outbound side only SAP Logon TIcket supported. This is the case for PI 7.1

Please refer this for understanding:

Thanks for your replies..

we went along with BASIS and NSS did Active Directory so that only those users can access the PI ..thats how we achieved authentication.

Hello,

The concept is the same as Principal Propagation, you can refer to the link below for more information:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/48/a9bbb97e28674be10000000a421937/frameset.htm

But I think that approach is limited only to SAP to SAP (experts, please correct) scenarios.

Hope this helps,

Mark
