Disabling username/password challenge

[mike_tx_edu]

I created a process in workbench to pull data from a database and added a data connection to the service to call the process and bind the data fields to the form. When I click on the button to invoke the service I am challenged with entering my username and password before the service returns any data. Is there a way to disable the username and password request when invoking the process from the form?

Thanks.

Yes. You can remove security on any service using the adminui.

Go under Services/Applications and Services/ Service Management and search for your service.

Then in the security tab, disable security.

Hi Jasmin,

In the adminui, I went to the Security tab for the service and set dropdown for Require callers to Authenticate to No, but I am still being challenged for username and password. Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Hi Mike,

Below that authenticate, the "Run As", try this: select "Special Run As" box and select "System" in the drop-down box and Save. Make sure you Save it for the change to be effective. Hope it helps.

Thanks Han.

Looks like that did the trick! Thanks again.

This is because you remove the security on your service, but your service was in turn calling other services, like setValue, etc.

You would have had to remove security on these services as well.

That's why we implemented the RunAs feature to avoid disabling security on every service.
