Single sign-on to Aras Innovator using a proprietary authentication system
We have built a system that when you log in to a PC, that system can auto-login to multiple systems. We want to use our own authentication system to automatically log in to Aras Innovator. I would like some advice. ・Do you have any documentation that would be helpful? ・What information can I provide to get more detailed advice?
Auth in Aras 12
Hello guys We have an mvc C# app and we use IOM to connect to aras. Has anyone tried the "old" way connecting via var conn = IomFactory.CreateWinAuthHttpServerConnection(url, db); and got it successfully working on production environment? It's not working for me the impersonation does not work. The app cannot log in, but if im in my dev environment using IIS express everything is fine user is found and logs in. Best regards

Instruction: How to Enable SSL in Aras Innovator V12 (or Fix Invalid Redirect_Uri)
Hello everyone, As I found myself struggling setting up SSL across multiple Aras Installations, I decided to write a short instruction. This instruction should fix error 'invalid redirect_uri'. 1. Enable SSL in Internet Information Services (IIS) In IIS, select your instance and under 'IIS' go to 'SSL Settings'. Make sure 'Require SSL' is checked and 'Client Certificates' is set to 'Ignore'. Depending on the modules you installed, make sure this setting is successfully applied to the following sub pages: Client, ConversionServer, NotificationServer, OauthServer, SelfServiceReporting, Server, Vault. 2. Install Notepad++ on the Innovator Server Install the latest version of Notepad++ or any similar tool that can replace text recursively in all files in a selected folder. 3. Replace HTTP instances with HTTPS In Notepad++ go to 'View > Find...' (or CTRL+F) and head over to the 'Find in Files' tab. Configure it as follows: Find what: http://localhost/ Replace with: https://[YOUR SERVER NAME / IP]/ Filters: *.* Directory: [THE ROOT DIRECTORY OF YOUR INSTALLATION – AN INNOVATOR FOLDER BY DEFAULT] Check: 'Include all sub-folders' Search mode: Normal Leave all unmentioned fields blank or unchecked Now click 'Replace in Files'. The process should take about 5 minutes so you can grab a cup of coffee. Once you return, about 30 instances should have been replaced. The 'redirect_uri' error should have been resolved and your browser will give you a SSL Certificate pop-up. Click 'OK' (only necessary once). I hope this helps. All the best from Almelo. Daan Update 2025: In newer versions of Innovator, much more than 30 instances will be found for replacement.
How to reuse Active Directory / LDAP Credentials in Webservice connection?
Hi, we handle Aras logins via Active directory. A second software shall be connected via Webservice/HttpWebRequest. This software share the same Active Directory Accounts. Regular connection strings in Aras may look somehow like this: string username= "myuser"; string password="mypw"; string encoded = System.Convert.ToBase64String(System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("ISO-8859-1").GetBytes(username+":"+password)); HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create("http://xyz"); request.Headers.Add("Authorization","Basic "+encoded); On local machines, it´s possible to use this line of code for using Windows access data: request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials; But as Aras is running on a server, this Method will not return the credentials of the current user. Are there samples available, that show how to forward the user credentials? I have seen, that the Aras Sharepoint integration does something similar, especially the Method SPDocument_onGet . But I am not sure, if this code is reusable, as it links to some Sharepoint specific files in the codetree. Maybe there are some other samples available, which are easier to use? Thanks for your help! AngelaHow to use Client Certificates for login into Innovator (or connecting to the server) ?
Hi community, does any one of you use Client Certificate Authentication for login into Innovator? I want to use this for additional security but haven´t done much own tests yet. Can you give me any tips on how to configure client certifications for Innovator? Do you use them by yourself and can share experience ("is it easy/hard to do")? According to the Aras roadmap, Client Certificate Authentication is now supported in Innovator 20. Does anyone know how this works? Is this a OAuth setting? What options do we have when not using Innovator 20? Can we assign Client Certification on Server level? I am still new to the topic, so every small hint would be highly appreciated! Thanks! Angela
