Question

Certificate authentication in HTTP Web Request activity

Workflow Administration

asked on May 5, 2020

Hi All,

We are planning to integrate with a External Application web services, which they are requiring to have Certificate Authentication instead of user authentication. According to the settings available in Laserfiche Workflow 10.2, which packaged with Laserfiche 10.3 setup, it allows only Default Authentication or User Authentication.

Does Laserfiche Workflow supports Certificate Authentication in some other way possible?

Please advise

Hi Kirubaa,

You'll likely need to use a Workflow .NET Script activity, at least for the initial authentication call. If the API returns an auth token/cookie/header, you can use that with the normal Web Request activity for subsequent calls.

I found this post on using client certificate auth for HTTP calls in .NET that might be a useful starting point:
