Authentication

Before using the Global Type Ahead Java Script Component, you must configure authentication for web service requests to the Spectrum™ Technology Platform server. For more information on the Spectrum™ Technology Platform authentication processing, refer to your Spectrum™ Technology Platform Web Services Guide.

To configure the Global Type Ahead Java Script Component authentication properties, follow these steps:

  1. Edit the spectrum-container.properties file in the Spectrum/app/conf folder.
  2. In the spectrum-container.properties file, set the value for the spectrum.security.authentication.webservice.enabled.REST property as needed. For example, set spectrum.security.authentication.webservice.enabled.REST=true to enable authentication for all REST services.
    Setting the value to FALSE removes any authentication requirements from Spectrum™ Technology Platform (not recommended).
  3. In the spectrum-container.properties file, set the value for the spectrum.security.authentication.webservice.enabled.SOAP property as needed. For example, set spectrum.security.authentication.webservice.enabled.SOAP=true to enable authentication for all SOAP services.
