Thread: Pass user login info from SLX Client to web service

Pass user login info from SLX Client to web service Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I have a web service that is called from the SLX Lan Client. A call is made from the SLX client to the web service, then the web service generates and returns a project number to the client.

I would like to expand this to pass the username and password of the logged in user and verify with the web service before the project number is created. I don't want the user to have to log on again.. Username is easy enough, but is this possible with the user's password? Thanks

SalesLogix user passwords are encrypted and it's done w/a "seed".. so is every user had the same password the encrypted value in Slx will be different.

.. and don't ask.. the info in the "seed" is not public info.. SalesLogix development keeps that to themselves.. If you knoew what it was and published it to a public forum (like this one) you would be compromising a key part od SalesLogix security... SO if you do figure it out.. please do not publish it.
