Hi,

this URL should work for MI 7.0 the same as for 2.5.

I just tested it in my 7.0 system and it does.

http://<host>:<port>/meSync/servlet/meSync?_{sysid=<system name>&}login=<user ID>&_{password=<user password>&}client=<system client number>&_language=en&test=true&

Well,

My hope was to use the URL to authenticate users (in addition to the user that has already logged in).

Is there any other way (UME API?) that can be used to authenticate a users ID + PASS ? A funtion module in SAP?

Thanks again

Hi,

yes, there is. Have a look into the MDK examples - I think it was there - for Generic Sync. This example shows how to check a user. It just calls the basic R/3 login method and checks its result. At the end - you can call any function module inside R/3 via Generic Sync and ask your ABAPER - there is a function mocule to check users....

Hope that helps!

The reason I liked the original URL was you could authenticate a users password. Is that possible either through the connection URL or some other FM in SAP?

Thanks

Hi,

well, we talk about a test - you can not do anything with it but see if the service as such is working as expected. Once this is done you can work in MI and then this should work as well. So you do not need a userfor a test I think.

HI

In MI 7.0 Sync Servlet is never shipped nor used and hence the above URL will not work and is not the right way to test. You need to use the URL for ABAP Sync Service and following is the URL

http://<YOUR HOST NAME>:<PORT>/sap/bc/mjc/mi_host?sap-client=<YOUR CLIENT>

On execution you should get a XML parse error. This means your test is fine.

You can also do a Test Service against mi_host under MJC service name in SICF Transaction.

Hi,

one simple addition to that: if you use the URL Sivakumar has offered, you should get the login popup first. If you do not see either login popup or XML error - your setup is incorect.
