About authentication
Contents
You can use either Active Directory or Local Authentication protocols to access CaseMap Server REST endpoints. CaseMap Server exposes these protocols through the CaseMapAD and CaseMapLA services.
|
Regardless of which service you choose to use, the information you retrieve will be the same. Also, CaseMap server does not use sessions; instead, your call is authenticated each time you make a call. |
Active Directory
To use Active Directory authentication, make all your calls to the /CaseMapAD/CMServerAD/ resource. Note that your user account must have Active Directory permissions on the server. If you have the appropriate permissions, the server will automatically authenticate you.
Example: http://localhost/CaseMapAD/CMServerAD/version
Local Authentication
To use Local Authentication, make all your calls to the /CaseMapLA/CMServerLA/ resource. When using Local Authentication, the operating system will query you for the name and password of a local admin account.
Example: http://localhost/CaseMapLA/CMServerLA/version
