How gold level integration works

Last Updated : Oct 04, 2012 |

Here is a high-level description of how gold level integration works for adding a new user. For an illustration see, Gold Level Integration with Active Directory Services.

  • Provisioning:

    • Add the user to your enterprise user management system.

    • Your enterprise system contacts AE Services User Management via Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) interface, as a normal processing activity, to provide the update.

      • Your “enterprise_distributor” updates the AE Services User Management database.

      • The AE Services sdbdistributor updates the SDB.

  • Authentication:

    • A user attempts to log in (as a client of the TSAPI Service).

    • The user is authenticated against the enterprise user management system.

    • User permissions are derived from the AE Services SDB.
