Allow Access to Entitlement Information

vokopeti Jan 8, 2014 7:57 AM

Hi,

We have an Enterprise account and we have created a folio with Web Content overlay where the 'Allow Access to Entitlement Information' option has been selected. The included HTML has a custom JavaScript API based on the Adobe DPS - Library and Store SDK 2.29.

We have an iPad application with direct entitlement which also uses the Adobe DPS - Library and Store SDK. When I log in this application I can download folios.

If I open the folio I can't access any entitlement information throught the Library and Store SDK in the Web Content overlay.

For example the adobeDPS.version variable returns the correct version of the LibraryAPI Interface which means the API has been already initialized but the adobeDPS-AuthenticationService.isUserAuthenticated variable is always false, so do the adobeDPS.deviceService.isOnline variable.

adobeDPS.version is 1.3
adobeDPS.deviceService.deviceId is null
adobeDPS.deviceService.deviceName is null
adobeDPS.deviceService.isOnline is false

You need to use the reading API, http://www.adobe.com/go/dps-reading-api, from within a folio. Unfortunately authenticationService is not available from the reading API. Can you retest with the reading API?

Hi,
Adobe - any plans to add AuthenticationService to the ReadingAPI?

Not currently. What scenario are you trying to accomplish?

Semi single sign on
In enterprise application with entitlement, I would like to have ability to get authToken (if user is signed in) and based on this, present user specific content inside a folio, without additional login inside webview.
So what do I need is read-only part of AuthenticationService Class: isUserAuthenticated and token properties.

That would be great.
We need this functionality too.

We need this authenticated user information available to Reader API also. Mainly the Externally Entitled subscriber ID.
