Question
IAC Login
I am following the course Customizing the User Experience which has exercise for Creating Pega Web Mashup.
I have followed exercise steps and generated mashup code. It looks like below:
<script src ='http://192.168.1.10:9080/prweb/PRServlet?pyActivity=pzIncludeMashupScripts'></script>
<div data-pega-gadgetname ='PegaGadget'
data-pega-action-param-parameters ='createNewWork'
data-pega-action-param-classname ='ABB-ReserveIt-Work-Listing'
data-pega-action-param-flowname ='pyStartCase'
data-pega-action-param-model =''
data-pega-isdeferloaded ='false'
data-pega-applicationname ='ReserveIt'
data-pega-threadname ='STANDARD'
data-pega-systemid ='pega'
data-pega-resizetype ='stretch'
data-pega-url ='http://192.168.1.10:9080/prweb/PRServlet'
data-pega-redirectguests ='false'
>
</div>
I have added above code to test webpage provided with exercise. But when I access the webpage with url http://192.168.1.10:9080/Listing.html. it just shows me Pega login screen. How do I get past login screen (Do I need to send username and password through gadget somehow?) and mashup create the work object?
Hi Sachin,
As per the IACAuthentication activity this expects the user id in header in production. We have implemented mashup to onboard one Pega instance inside another Pega instance. We are now struggling how to pass the user id in http header from the host pega instance to remote one. Can you please let me know if you have any idea in this?
Thanks,
Deep
I am using the below code to display harness but still it's showing the login screen.

Cool. That worked. Thanks Naveen.
What I was missing was base-64 encoded password. I was passing it as plain text.
By the way, in real-world implementation,what is way to achieve this? Do we still pass userid and password parameters like this or will it be through third party authentication (SSO) etc?
Thanks for the update Sachin.
While Generating Mashup code, We believe the source URL will be "IAC" preceded by your hostname which uses basic authentication of your operator. In case if URL includes "SSO" system may request for SSO login, that will no longer render the Harness content you are referring in Mashup code (Haven't tested - Not recommended by Pega).
Hello Sachin,
You need to provide authentication credentials to IAC Page so that it will render appropriate Harness or Section you are referencing in Mashup code. Please find the reference document I have attached.
