SAPGRC_AC_IDM_SUBMITREQUEST service requires logon when called from ABAP

[Former Member]

Hello GRC Experts,

We have written a program iin our ECC system (ABAP stack only) that makes a call to the web service SAPGRC_AC_IDM_SUBMITREQUEST to create a CUP request. However, when we execute the service we are prompted to logon to the CUP system. Is there a way to configure the call to make use of an existing service user and NOT require a user/password authentication upon each call? We do not have IDM.

Thanks,

Yvonne Davis

Why don't you just authenticate in the request...?

Hi,

I have been facing the same issue of authentication dialog poping whil executing the webservice.Is there a way to circumvent this issue.

Your reply would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

That is linked to the GRC authentication configuration. CUP might need to know the identity of a requester to continue the workflow.

If your request originates from an ABAP program you can create and use a service user to mimic that.
