Title: Security Integration via Web Service
Post by: JeremyAude on 27 Jul 2016 10:27:18 AM
Hi there,

I am faced with implementing security in a Dynamic Cube where I need to retrieve user attributes (for row level security) through a web service. 

I am really not sure at all if this is possible.  I appreciate any thoughts and suggestions!

Here's the process:

1. User logs in via corporate portal (ForgeRock)
2. Token is passed via OpenAM agent with user name
3. Call web service passing user id to get other attributes returned
4. Use attributes to apply security to dynamic cube


Thanks,
Jeremy
