Overview
[top]
User Replication and Managment
[top]
User replication involves synchronising each user in the OEM application with a named user in Yellowfin.
This allows Yellowfin to identify the user who is logged in, and to apply any restrictions that may be required. Synchronisation is usually performed using web service calls from the OEM application to Yellowfin. This can also be managed manually if users in the OEM application are generally static.
This section will outline how to create, manipulate, and delete users via web services. It is assumed that the web service is called to mirror user changes immediately after a user modification is made in the OEM application.
Functions
">
">
Retrieving & Validating User Information
Once a user has been created, the user's details can be retrieved using a web service call. The User ID field in the AdministrationPerson object is used to identify the user. As a result, a populated AdministrationPerson object will be returned. For security reasons, passwords will not be returned and will be NULL
. User information can also be validated against the application in this section.
">
">
">
">
">
Manipulating User Information
A user's details can be modified at a later time using a web service call. The User ID field in the AdministrationPerson object is used to identify the user, so this cannot be changed. The rest of the fields within an AdministrationPerson object are populated with the new changes. For security reasons, the user's password cannot be changed with this web service call, but with a separate CHANGEPASSWORD function (below).
">
">
Retrieving Objects Belonging to a User
[top]
Objects belonging to a user in a Primary or Client Organisation can be retrieved with various web service calls. The objects returned in the response will be dependent on the type of call made in the request.

Group & Role Administration
[top]
Groups and Roles can be created and modified with a web service call. The objects returned in the response is dependent on the type of call made in the request.
Note: if [Client Org] functionality is turned on in the [Configuration] page, a Client Org can also be specified where applicable for certain types of calls.

Yellowfin contains functionality called [Client Organisations], which allows multiple virtual instances of Yellowfin to reside in the same server instance.
Client Organisation functionality can be managed with the available web service calls listed below.
