How to configure WS-Security for SOAP Services?
SA-5127
Summary
How to use WS-Security instead of Basic Authentication using LDAP and leverage username token profile to authenticate the application user? Any authenticated PRPC operator must not be able to invoke the SOAP Service, which is possible with Basic Authentication.
Resolution
Perform the following:
- In Service Package, clear the Requires-Authentication check box selection.
- Navigate to Service SOAP rule > Advanced tab and enable WS-Security option. Specify Security Profile.
- Provide a valid username and password in the WS-Security Profile. When SOAP Service was run standalone, by clicking Play button, request envelope and response were generated without any issues.
- Create a SOAP Connector in PRPC to test the SOAP Service configured through the above steps or use external tools like SOAP-UI.
