Propagating security credentials to Siebel and SAP requests

The SAPRequest and SiebelRequest nodes can use an identity that is present in the Properties folder of the message tree structure for the security credentials in a request. The nodes must use the Propagate property on the security profile that is defined on the node to propagate the security credentials.

About this task

If an SAPRequest node is configured with a security profile, it extracts security tokens from the input message at run time, and propagates an identity to SAP. Similarly, if a SiebelRequest node is configured with a security profile, it extracts tokens from the input message at run time, and propagates an identity to Siebel.

Procedure

To propagate an identity to be used for the Siebel or SAP request security credentials, complete the following steps.

  1. Ensure that an appropriate security profile exists for the SAPRequest node, or create a security profile, by following the instructions in Creating a security profile.
  2. Use the BAR editor to select a security profile for the SAPRequest node that has identity propagation enabled.
    For detailed instructions, see Configuring a message flow for identity propagation.
