Cognos Run Report Authentication Source is Trusted

Hi Folks,

I am using Cognos 10.2.1 and I am trying to run a cognos report using the SDK, I am using the sample API runreport to run the report, I am able to do so when I keep the Anoynmous request as true and I can find my the report output in a .html file.

Now the problem starts here, I am using TrustedSignon Authentication Provider to authenticate users into Cognos, now when I keep the authentication to false and supply the user credentials to the program, it fails and gives me the error as given below:

The error "cmAuthenticateFailed CM-CAM-4005 Unable to authenticate. Check your security directory server connection and confirm the credentials entered at login" can be found in the response SOAP header. CM-REQ-4342 An error has occurred with the client.

Is this error because the user does not persists anywhere in Trusted Authentication provider? and cognos does not understand where exactly it should find the user credentials from?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Regards
Ravi.
