Authentication method

All SOAP calls to the business entity services require user authentication. Provide the user name and password in the SOAP message header of the web service request.

The SOAP header element Security contains the security-related data. The Security element contains the UsernameToken element which has the following child elements:

username: User name associated with the token.
password: Password for the user name associated with the token.

Send the user name and password in the UsernameToken element.

The following example shows the Security header element in the SOAP message:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:cs-ors.informatica.mdm">
   <soapenv:Header>
   <Security xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd">
    <UsernameToken>
      <Username>admin</Username>
      <Password>admin</Password>
    </UsernameToken>
  </Security>
  </soapenv:Header>
<soapenv:Body>
.....
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
