Question
Snapstart URL not working
Hi,
I am using below URL to launch Pega in a modal window from an external website. But keep getting "Invalid Request: 400"
http://localhost:8080/prweb?UserIdentifier=<User name>&Password=<pwd>&pyActivity=Work-.NewFromFlow&InsClass=SL-CA-Analyzer-Work-Onboarding&FlowType=pyStartCase&HarnessPurpose=Perform
Hi,
The Password needs to be base64 encoded and then that result URL encoded. Have you done that?
Example Password: thisisnotsecureatall
Base64 Encoded: dGhpc2lzbm90c2VjdXJlYXRhbGw=
URLEncoded: dGhpc2lzbm90c2VjdXJlYXRhbGw%3D
This is also not very secure. For example the web servers will possibly have a log file containing URL's in them that show a username and password for accessing a system.

ChrisKoyl I have a requirement to launch Pega Case everytime a new guest clicks on an external web application. Initially I was thinking of implementing using snapstart URL but as you stated the credentials get exposed in query string. Now I am considering SSO to get a new user created everytime guest clicks the button to launch Pega.
Hi,
Instead of localhost, use IP address and try.
Thanks,
