Web Service Security Question

Former Member
0 Kudos

I have created a web service in the NetWeaver portal using a Portal Service. I have marked the service as requiring basic http authentication. However, when I call the web service from the Enterprise Portal Web Services Checker in NWDS it just let's me supply the params of the web service and no authentication. Any ideas?

I also noticed that my web service does not appear under the Web Services Container or Web Services Security section in Visual Administrator. Anybody have any idea why this is?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Curtis,

My guess is that since you are logged into the Portal while calling this web service, it will use the current session cookie to authenticate automatically. I'm not sure on the second question, tried a restart?
