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();
parameters["user"] = ; "user"; // tried with and without domain name
parameters["password"] = "password";
parameters["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
Jeff
