Last Login Information for SAML Authentication

[former_member374335]

Hi All,

We have SAP Enterprise Portal running on SAP Netweaver 7.3 SP 9. We have applications deployed on Portal and these applications are accessed from SalesForce.com(SF). SAML authentication is in place for application authentication between Portal and SF. Now, we need to know, Is there way to get the login details of the user's accessing the Portal applications via SF. Is it being logged anywhere in Portal and how can we get the last login information. Your inputs are highly appreciated.

Regards,
Venkatesh K

Hi Venkatesh,

You should be able to achieve your requirement using the UME API:

It looks like another customer also managed to successfully achieve what you need here:

Hi Venkatesh

If I understand it correct, you want to gather user information of the user logging into the portal, please correct me if I am wrong.

For that you can use the Portal Activity Report.. The portal activity report feature enables portal administrators to gather and present information about portal activity, including information about the users who logged on to the portal and about the content that was viewed.

The feature includes an iView that can display a portal activity report with one of the following:

• Information about the number of users who logged on during a specified period of time
• Information about the users who logged on
• Information about the number of users who visited each page and iView

Hi Santarshi,

Thanks for the response. Let me re-iterate, we have UI5 applications deployed on Portal and these applications are accessed from SalesForce. Whenever any user access the application (through direct deployed application URL) from Sales Force, the authentication is done via SAML. We could see the user's login information's are getting traced in the SAP Logs under NWA/logs. So the requirement is to capture this data. Do we have any standard portal UME attribute to retrieve this? Not sure, whether the Portal activity report is capable of tracing this information as there is no interaction on Page/iView level.

Hi Venkatesh K,

The SAML is used for login, and not for trust. Am I right?

If you need trust between SF and your application, you need to import the certificates generated by SALES force in the NWA.

Hi Fabio,

Thanks for your response. As I mentioned above, we are using SAML Based authentication for the applications running in Portal from Sales Force. Is there way to get the login details of the user's accessing the Portal applications via SF.
