Dynamic Authentication
In MapForce, it is possible to configure mappings that call Web services for basic HTTP authentication. Dynamic authentication is one of the ways to achieve this; it is an alternative to using credentials. Dynamic authentication means designing the mapping so that it accepts the username and password as input parameters. For details about configuring dynamic authentication, refer to MapForce documentation (https://www.altova.com/documentation).
When you deploy a mapping containing dynamic authentication to FlowForce Server, the username and password become input parameters to the mapping function. Any FlowForce Server job that calls such a mapping function will require the username and password before it can run successfully, for example:
In the example illustrated above, the username and password are simply entered in the respective text boxes. However, you can also supply them as input parameters to the job, see Managing Input Parameters.
