Hello,

 

 

 

I have used the sample REST C# code supplied by Safe to create a simple application. The sample code provided can be located here:

 

 

 

http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/Content/REST/FMEServerRestAPIdemo.cs

 

 

 

We have two FME Servers here, one in a test environment, and another for production.

 

 

 

I have written my code against the test server, which uses standard security, using user and password managed by FME Server. Everything works fine.

 

 

 

However, when I use my code against the second server, which is secured by the Active Directory, I always get error 401, access denied.

 

 

 

Is there anyone out there that has used the REST API with Active Directory security?

 

 

Here is an example of the code I use to fetch a token:

 

 

 

        private string GetFmeServerToken()

 

        {

 

            string fmeTokenUrl = this.Serveur + "/fmetoken/service/generate";

 

 

 

            NameValueCollection parameters = new NameValueCollection();

 

 

 

            parameterse"user"] = ; "user"; // tried with and without domain name

 

 

 

            parameters;"password"] = "password";

 

 

 

            parametersa"expiration"] = "2";

 

 

 

            parameters "timeframe"] = "minute";

 

 

 

            byte<] reponseBytes;

 

 

 

            using (WebClient client = new WebClient())

 

            {

 

                if (CustomSetting.FmeImpersonationUtilisateur)

 

                {

 

                    client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;

 

 

 

                    client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domaine");

 

                }

 

 

 

                reponseBytes = client.UploadValues(fmeTokenUrl, "POST", parameters);

 

            }

 

 

 

            return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(reponseBytes);

 

        }

 

 

 

Now, to make matters worst, I need to authenticate with a different user account that the one running my application, meaning I need to impersonate a different account.

 

 

 

This code should work, should it not? I tried to not provide the user/password in the named values, which gave me error 400 bad request. I tried without the impersonate code, providing error 401 access denied.

 

 

 

No matter what I do, or what I permutated in my code, I can not get anything to work.

 

 

 

Thank you
