Hi Vlastimil, Other group members my have more ideas, but I would say the most common approach is to keep the administrator credentials in a configuration file (or in the code even). A slightly more secure approach would be do the same for an auth token instead of the administrator credentials.
Another fairly common approach is to keep the administrator credentials in memory. For example, when you run the script, have it prompt for credentials. In your program, remove any references to the credentials after obtaining the auth token. Unfortunately there is no way to circumvent the requirement to regularly update the token, since they expire. And in order to get a new token, you need send the correct credentials to ClientLogin. Admittedly, these limitations make it difficult to have scripts run completely unattended without persistent credentials. You can create another administrator for use with the Provisioning API. In fact may administrators do this. However for Premier Edition domains, you would have to pay for this user just like a normal user. -alex On Mar 6, 2:02 pm, Spes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > as I look at the Provisioning API, admin user authentication (time > limited token) is needed. > I need to use the API in non-interactive scripts without storing my > credentials in there or > regularly updating token.
