ArcGIS token-based authentication

You can use token-based authentication to secure one or more map services.

If ArcGIS token-based authentication is enabled for a map service, user requests sent to the ArcGIS server include an encrypted security token that is used to authorize the requests. You can specify a default user name and password to use for all requests that are associated with a map manager, or you can specify a user name and password for individual map services. If the credentials that are supplied for a map service cannot be authenticated, the default credentials that are defined for the map manager are checked. If you enable or disable token-based authentication, or if you update the user credentials, you must save the map manager.

The mxe.pluss.services.authen.tokenTimeResetLimit property is used to set and customize the default behavior of the token-based authentication function.
Table 1. System property used for ArcGIS token-based authentication
Property Description
mxe.pluss.services.authen.tokenTimeResetLimit Number of minutes removed from the given token expiration time when the token was created.

For example, if token life time is set to 30 minutes, set this property to 5 to request a new token in 25 minutes. The request is made 5 minutes before the existing token expires.

If you set this property to 0, the token may expire between token being validated and when it is used.

Default value is 5 minutes.

Valid values are 0-999.
