REST Connector , service protect by SSO - How to connect
We are conecting to external system via REST connector, but the external system JSON service url is protect by site minder, so whenever we hit we are redirected to sso login page instead of actual service JSON. Now how to connect to service URL ? Do I need to authenticate first then pass cookie in header? Please advice?
No other way? We are using PEGA 7.1.1 its possible via http connect or Java step to access the sso via servlet before I connect?
This is certainly technically possible by customizing the OOTB pyinvokerestconnector activity (at your risk since there have been so many other changes since then) but you should really ask yourself why using such an old release. There are so many enhancement and bug fixes in all areas since then, now we are at 7.1.9.
Upgrade is not possible for now:) any other solutions?
Are you passing SMSession cookie information in the header?
I dont have SMSESSIONID, so I have to connect and obtain ..
If i am not wrong SMSession Cookie is created during authentication.
We got this resolved by passing SMSESSION in cookie ..thanks a lot
Hi Swami,
You should use proxy server settings. I believe this feature is available since 7.1.8. You need to set the jvm arguments similar to these:
-Dhttp.proxyHost=<Host name or IP address of HTTP proxy>-Dhttps.proxyHost=<Host name or IP address of HTTP proxy to take https path>-Dhttps.proxyPort=<HTTPs port>-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=<Specify Service Hostnames, for which you want to bypass the requests>-Dhttp.proxyUser=<Username if basic auth is enabled at proxy>-Dhttp.proxyPassword=<Password if basic auth is enabled at proxy>
