SSO with lotus domino 9.0.1

Suppose our application(say myApp) is in SSO with lotus domino 9.0.1 server,is it required credentials while i am accessing rest APIs(calendar, data & core) from myApp.

Solution

  • Authentication is transparent to the REST APIs. The Domino web server authenticates each request, so it depends on how your server is configured. If you want to use SAML, you will have to configure web federated login. Follow the preceding link for a good overview. As shown in slide 9, your application needs to:

    • Acquire a SAML assertion from the IdP
    • Use the SAML assertion to acquire a session cookie from the Domino server
    • Include the session cookie in each subsequent REST request
