Method
/API2/auth/authenticateUserSAMLAlt
Input Parameters
Name
userSamlCredentials
Object Type
Description
The user credentials for authentication by SAML token.
Output Response
Successful Result Code
200
Description of Response Type
The response is the security token as a base64 string. It is usually stored in a cookie.
Notes
The security token is a string that needs to be embedded in every API call to ensure the API calls are authorized. If saved as a cookie in a web browser, it can be used (for the authenticated user) to auto-login into the application. The assumption is that the user has already authenticated via SAML before attempting to authenticate into Pyramid.
