Authentication Business Service
Most people want security in this world. So whatever piece you design, Authentication becomes the key aspect. There are times when you want to authenticate whether the user-in-context is valid siebel user or not without actually logging into the system. This type of requirement is typical in Mobile Solutions using HTML5 and siebel webservices.
Here I unearth one more hidden gem of siebel, "Authentication Business Service". This magical service authenticates user against siebel irrespective of your security authentication mechanism. Be it database or LDAP it will return you valid siebel user name else invalid user/password error.The method is "Authenticate". It accepts three input parameters:
1 - User Name - User Name to be authenticated in siebel
2 - Password - Password of the user
3 - GetPrivateCredentials - Y OR N based on the requirement. If set to Y it will result user name in "Siebel User Name" output parameter.
One can see its usage in "LS Medical User Verification" workflow to get better feel of it. You can create web service based on this BS and can rest assured of your authentication approach. Hope it helps.
