Login To Alfresco API

coisox

Using this API, I can get the token to do some stuff:

https://mydomain/alfresco/service/api/login?u=myusername&pw=mypassword

But when I go to my Alfresco, I still be prompt for login:

https://mydomain/share/page/

I need a way (iframe cannot since cross domain) to auto login into my Alfresco. My web apps has a download button for files (stored in Alfresco) using this URL:

https://mydomain/share/proxy/alfresco/slingshot/node/content/workspace/SpacesStore/9684c587-d068-4afb-b0d6-8b18e2365ea7/TESTING.docx?a=true

Without a live session, the download URL will return 401. This is the main reason why I need the session to be alived.

I've also tried this but fail (I got the idea when inspecting Alfresco login). I got error "Something's wrong with this page..."

<form action="https://mydomain/share/page/dologin" method="post">

    <input type="text" name="username" value="myusername">

    <input type="text" name="password" value="mypassword">

    <input type="text" name="success" value="/share/page/">

    <input type="text" name="failure" value="/share/page/?error=true">

</form>

These also give fail result:

If you have obtained a ticket from /alfresco you can use other ReST APIs on /alfresco to interact with the content of the system using the ticket as your authentication token. You can also use the ticket via CMIS using the special user name "ROLE_TICKET" and the ticket as the password.
