Mobile client and external CAS authentication

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Hello Folks,

We are looking to switch our authentication method from ldap to CAS.  We have CAS working on the web version of alfresco.  The Mobile client returns an error "unable to Authentication".  I have two questions.

1) Does the mobile client support external CAS authentication?
2) if it does, does the service URL change?


Thanks,

Pat Shanahan

Unfortunately right now the mobile apps only support HTTP BASIC over clear or TLS connections to the Alfresco repository.

We'd recommend that you raise an improvement request in JIRA in our MOBILE project in order for the feature to be prioritised.

Alternatively we'd be more than happy to receive a code contribution to enable CAS support. All our mobile code is on GitHub.

Thanks,
Mike
