QaaWs and customized Authentication in Xcelsius


Xcelsius provides an authentication mechanism that enables you to avoid logging into InfoView twice with the same session ID.

Take note of following rules if you customize authentication:

- An existing session ID is used only if the user name and password are blank (if they are not hard coded or not passed as input values captured by a dialog). This occurs when Query as a Web Service is running in InfoView or Dashboard Manager.

- If the user name and password are not blank, then use these values to authenticate the user. No session is created. This is the most scalable scenario and is the preferred option for large-scale usage.

- If there is no pre-existing session (and username and password are blank), Xcelsius displays the standard security dialog, in which a session is created. This occurs when Xcelsius designers do not build their own security dialog.

    Hey mate,

    In this article are you saying that using the custom authentication setting on a QaaWS will never use an existing session ID if the username and password are passed? We are providing the user name and password via hard coding in Xcelsius and finding that it does creation a session, in fact it seems to be creating a new one every time the query is used. We have a query that runs every 10 seconds and seems to be opening 100 sessions before they start to finally time out.

    Thanks

    Paul
