Hi Christian and Mauro
We are using the leaflet and Angular based client side app which
communicates with spatial data through C# API.
Identity server (a C# based API) matches the email id and password from
identity storage and calls ArcGIS server get token service with a generic
username, password and referer (essentially we are calling this from
server side API (used as proxy server for intial request) and generating an
authentication token). and this token is used for all the communication
between user and arcgis server until token expired for the session. So we
don't need to store any credential on client side code. In this scenario,
tokens are unique for a user's session.
Geoserver can be configured for a key or encrypted password but I am trying
to explore an option where we can have some sort of session password with
some sort of expiration / validation of referer. We don't want to move all
the users to geoserver currently.
Please advise if something is not clear.
Thanks
