Web services is composed of three different web service URLs. Users can use any language to interact with the STWS API as long as XML, JSON, or SOAP is the standard for sending and receiving data.
How do I set up Single Sign-On?
Enabling SSO can be done in a few simple steps. As an example, in stratustime you can navigate to the configuration interface and select General. Under General, the SSO options can be found in the Web Services section. Proper permission levels in the system are required to enable SSO. When under Web Services, you can check the box to enable SSO. At this time, a “Shared Key” GUID will be issued. After you enable SSO, you can choose to have web access & SSO, or SSO log in only. If “SSO log in only” is selected, stratustimelogin will be disabled.
