Authenticating with Basic Authentication

FTL clients: Pass the username and password as properties to the realm connect call.

For example, in C API, pass TIB_REALM_PROPERTY_STRING_USERNAME and TIB_REALM_PROPERTY_STRING_USERPASSWORD to tibRealm_Connect

eFTL clients can pass the username and password as properties to the connect call.

For example, in C API, set the username and password options when calling tibeftl_Connect.

FTL servers: in the yaml configuration file, set user and password in the ftlserver.properties section for each FTL server. See Authenticating to other FTL Servers in FTL Server Configuration Parameters

Administrative tools:

For the REST API, include an “Authorization” header in HTTP requests. <credentials> is the base64 encoding of the string “<username>:<password>”.

    Authorization: Basic <credentials>

If using tibftladmin, specify the “--user” and “--password” command line parameters. See FTL Administration Utility.
