About Service Portlet rules

Identify the service activity that displays the home page of the portlet and the values used to authenticate the portlet users.

Field

Description

Processing  
Activity Class

SmartPromptEnter the first key part — Applies To — of the service activity.

Service Activity Name

SmartPromptEnter the second key part —Activity Name — of the service activity.

Help Activity Name

SmartPromptOptional. Identify the name of an activity (in the same class as the service activity) that can produce and send a ready-to-display HTML page of help information for display in the client portlet.

Authentication

Complete these fields unless the portlet is to access this Process Commander system as an unauthenticated (guest) user.

Application ID

SmartPrompt Select the application ID data instance (Data-Admin-AppID class) you created for this portlet. The PRPortletService authentication service uses this value to verify the security token that the portlet sends to identify itself to Process Commander.

Leave blank when implementing single sign-on with a custom activity that does not use an Application ID data instance.

For information about the PRPortletService and how application IDs are used by portlets, see Pega Developer Network article PDNPRKB-25110 How portlet services work.

Cost Center Number

OldLeave blank. This field provides backward compatibility with single sign-on mechanisms in older Process Commander versions.

User Identifier Attribute

Specify the user attribute on the portal server that represents or maps to the value of the pyUserIdentifier property — that is, the Operator ID — of the Data-Admin-Operator-ID data instance in Process Commander.

For example, a typical value for a WebSphere portal server is:

user.business-info.online.email

User Name Attribute

Optional. Specify the user attribute on the portal server that represents or maps to the value of the pyUserName property of the Data-Admin-Operator-ID data instance. You can use it to display a user's name ("Juan Smith") in the portlet. For example:

username.data
