Authentication in Computing is the process or action of verifying the identity of a user or process.

Authentication in InterSystems Data Platform Documentation.

Question Evgenii Ermolaev · Mar 25, 2021

Currently, I am working on a CSP application that is supposed to generate reports. Users will have varying access to said reports. To achieve that, I plan to use LDAP (because it's used in other systems where those users already exist). Documentation does not provide enough information, so I'd like a clarification:
Do I need to enable LDAP authentication for the whole Cache instance to use LDAP authentication in a single CSP application in that instance?

Hi Community,

is there a possibility to implement a "remember password" feature in a ZEN Application?

In the management portal I added a web-application for a ZEN application with password authentification. I created an own login page, and now I want to implement a "remember password" feature (User should not have to login again after the session times out or when the browser window is closed).

Hey Intersystems Community,

I have a Problem with the Session Handling in .csp.

I wrote all my Web Services in .csp-Pages and do the work for example in the OnPreHttp Method for to get some data.

After that the Web Service response is in JSON.

I call These Web Services via fetch in my react Single Page application, also Many request parallel. The react App is Rolled out as index.html.
Everything Works Fine with the session Handling via Cookie.

Hi guys,

I'm trying to consume a REST Service that use Digest authentication, I'm trying to implement the authentication but I'm don't know where is my mistake.

Someone have already used this type of authentication.

Below the code I wrote to try to generate the response hash:

 // Algorithm reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication
 //
 // Test data:
 // Do TestDigest^HC.Debug("posstman", "password", "/digest-auth", "postman-echo.com", 80)
 // Do TestDigest^HC.Debug("usr", "pwd", "/digest-auth/auth/usuario/senha/MD5", "httpbin.

Hi,

I've a Service utilising the Adapter EnsLib.SQL.InboundAdapter, which uses a Credentials item set with the details of a local SQL account. This currently works, however, we're looking to use the credentials of an AD domain account.

The domain account is a member of an AD security group, which has the required permissions on the source SQL database. I've checked that access is possible with this account via SQL studio.

I've tested setting the Credential username as domain\username and username@FQDN, but neither create a successful connection.

Hello everyone :-)

I would like to update Atelier from version 1.0.262 to the 1.3 one. So I clicked on Help --> Check for updates, and I get these first error messages:

"No updates were found in available software sites."

"Some sites could not be found. See the error log for more detail." etc. cf picture below talking about Proxy Authentication.

Hello, has anyone tried to use Caché as a reverse proxy ?

We are trying to embed a dashboard server (Plotly Dash in this case, but it could be anything which runs on its application server) inside our application which is written in Caché.  
The dashboard/report server runs locally (for example, or inside a LAN) on port 8080, and has no authentication features, so we have to implement them on a different layer, and we'd like to use Caché for it.

OAuth server to be deployed on the IRIS learning cloud platform. Clients - one on the other instance of the learning IRIS server, the other client locally on my computer in the container docker.

Both clients get a seemingly correct link (through ##class(%SYS.OAuth2.Authorization).GetAuthorizationCodeEndpoint()) to the login request form:  

https://52773b-62955584.labs.learning.intersystems.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=nHCv5A-u_5T1YAwk_tJ7xpi1ky-s2AnRQMaL6YHsUgU&redirect_uri=https%3A//52773b-99792125.labs.learning.intersystems.com/csp/sys/oauth2/OAuth2.Response.

Hello,

I'm new to Iris for Health and I'm trying to get some experience using it.  I've subscribed to the Intersystems Iris for Health software in AWS marketplace.  I successfully spun up the EC2 instance with the default security group.  The try-iris instance is healthy and successfully starts within EC2.  I've also successfully changed the default password too.

 However, I'm unable to authenticate into the management portal.  The portal launches okay though I keep getting an access denied.  I'm also unable to authenticate into a session from the EC2 instance.

Hi!

I have a qeustion if it possible to let Ensemble manage user rights from AD-user group?

What i want is to let external user have access to certain CPS-pages to read information. But not let them have access to Ensemble it self. And instead to set up individual accounts in Ensemble for each one of them i rather want to have dem in an AD-securitygroup.

Is that possible and also limit them only to choosen CSP-pages?

I'm not a administrator of our platform, i'm just develope productions so i would be greatful for information i could bring to our tech-guys and ask them to set it tup, if possible.

Question Arun Kumar · Oct 15, 2018

Hi All,

Actually, I'm developing few restful API's. I want to create a authentication tokens and display it on my login restful API. If I'm using CSP sessionId, how can I validate the session Id's in another or continues restful API's. else, is there any other approach to handle this task. 

My Primary goal is, I have to integrate 2 different front end applications. One is Zen framework another one is web pages from Python. 

If any lead, it would be appreciated. 

Thanks,

Arun Kumar Durairaj.

Question Annalisa Wilde · Jul 26, 2018

I am doing an implementation of a SAML 2.0 SingleSignOn protocol integration which requires a signed message with the signature element in the body of the SOAP message, not the header as is default SOAP security handling. Any suggestions for how to do this would be greatly appreciated. When it is passed in the header, it is not processed by our partner and we just get a "Signature Required" response. Presumably I will have to go through the steps outlined in Signing XML Documents but I am not sure the best place within the outbound web-client flow in which to do this.

Without installing Kerberos has anyone Authenticated a SQL JDBC connection? Currently we are using local SQL Accounts to sign onto External SQL Databases, but we are being told that we need to switch to Service accounts that live on a Active Directory Domain. 

I wrote with a little help a ZAUTHENICATE to do the Authentication for Ensemble, can I use something like that to connect to an External SQL Database using a Service Account on a Active Directory Domain?

Thanks

Scott

I need to offer new users on our system a temporary password that is valid for only 48 hours.  This is different than a 60-day password expiration window for existing users' passwords (where a password needs to be changed every 60 days), and is different than a "user expiration date", where you can set a date where the user's account expires and is disabled on that date, and different than the inactivity expiration date where a user becomes active if his account is not used within, say, 30 days.

Hi, 

 
have you any working example of authentication and services in Angular 4 (2-5) and Cache 2017.1?
 
We have authentication, but we don't want CacheUsername and CachePassword to be in url (this works), but in header (we have not get this work, Problem 1).
We have REST services and they work with CacheUserName and CachePassword, but we want them work with cookie after authentication is done (we have not get this work, Problem 2).

How to code the client and what all we have to code and set on server?
 
We've tried last this (asked also WRC /Tomas, but not got the answer).

Question Scott Roth · Feb 16, 2018

I am working on an ZAUTHENTICATE.mac to move us from local cache users to Delegated Authentication against LDAP. 

I have created a user role within my instance of Ensemble that matches the AD Group that I will be assigning everyone in my group to.  Is there a way to query the list of available Roles within Ensemble, and if one of my AD groups matches that role, set the role for that user?

How would I compare the AD Group against the Role listing?

Thanks

Scott
