Restful Web Services - First Party Authentication with custom authentication schemes

Hi
I've successfully enabled security using first party authentication on our Restful web services however these only work with the built in Apex accounts and not other authentication schemes.
Ideally I'd like to authenticate against LDAP, however when I enable this authentication scheme the restful services don't work as they only support the Apex accounts.
Has anyone implemented LDAP authentication for Apex restful web services, either directly or using Glassfish ? Does anyone know if support for custom authentication schemes on the feature roadmap for a future Listener release ?
I attempted to configure the glassfish application against LDAP but am still working on it.. glassfish never challenged the client to authenticate (it's only to be for the web service endpoints and nothing else), so any pointers on how to set that up for Apex would be appreciated.
Thanks
Kes

Hi Gemma,
unfortunately at the moment you are caught between a rock and a hard place:
- As you point out there is no way in APEX for a user to self-register themselves, short of developing your own table to store users and configuring APEX custom auth to authenticate against that table
- Listener can only authenticate against the the APEX user repository, it cannot integrate with custom APEX authentication.
There may be other options though, by leveraging the authentication capabilities in the JRE and/or WebLogic/GlassFish application servers. We're interested in addressing this use case, so if you wish to investigate further please send me an email ( colm <dot> divilly <at> oracle <dot> com).
Thanks,

Invoking an external web service through a JCD with Basic Authentication

Group,
I am trying to invoke an external web service (written in ASP.Net) from a jcd (5.1.2). The web service is guarded by Basic Authentication. I have entered the crudentials into the External Web service environment component and deployed the project. I receive the following error from the .invoke() method:
request requires HTTP authentication: Unauthorized
I have tried the same request through SoapUI using the same crudentials and get back the response correctly. Has anyone tried invoking an external web service with basic authentication through a jcd in 5.1.2 before?
One other item of note. I have another jcd calling a different external web service deployed on the same domain. I hope that this isn't interfering with the execution of this service as it doesn't require any crudentials to execute.

Hey Chris.
I am just starting to write a jcd that calls an external web service but cannot find any sample code nor instructions on how to do it in the supplied documentation. Could you send me a code sample from your one?
Cheers
Matt

Issue with Calling Rest Web Service using Designer workflow

Hello all
I am calling a Rest web service- HTTP Post (yammer API)-
http://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json?data-app-id=myappid&group_id=groupid&body=MyPost in yammer using sharepoint 2013 designer workflow.(My Requirement is to create a yammer post when I approve an item in sharepoint).
but my header parameters are creating issue while executing workflow.
Currently I have these many parameters configured in request header
Accept -application/json; odata=verbose
Content Type -application/json; odata=verbose
content length header -255
Is there anything wrong or I need to additionally pass some values in call web service action?
Any help would be highly appreciated

Protecting a REST web service with Policy Agent

I have deployed a REST web service in Glassfish using Jersey Annotations. A UI in the same Glassfish instance is protected by a policy agent that forces users through a login page. I would like to protect the REST web service with BASIC Authentication using the same policy agent. Is this possible? Is there supporting documentation?

Hi Daniel,
When you publish a message through Rest, hope your Restful service will receive/process the posted message?
So
YourBizTalk -->(Post Message to)-->RestFulService
From the error message, "the published message could not be routed because no subscribers were found.", it seems like the this Restful service is a
wrapper (or service interface) for BizTalk at client end( where message has been posted thru Rest) and actual posted message is “processed” by BizTalk and the error "" is from BizTalk "after" Rest. This message says the message you posted
through rest is not found subscription at their end.
So
YourBizTalk -->(Post Message to)-->RestFulService -->Clients'BizTalk.
Here problem is at Clients'BizTalk as shown where the posted message to their BizTalk is not processed because no subscription has been found.
If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful by clicking the upward arrow mark next to my reply.

URGENT: Rest web service with get method works fine in browser but not with java client(Android)

Hi ,
I have created one REST web service which accepts two parameters send back JSON results.
I tested the it in browser with URL as http://+Inteernal server+/ords/utimes/login_info?p1=+first_param+&p2=+second_para+
Web service URL : http://+Inteernal server+/ords/utimes/login_info?p1={p1}&p2={p2}
But when java team wants to access it from java code it gives error as "400- Bad Request".
one more IMP thing : when I test it in RESTful web service by using "set bind variable" , it only set value of first parameter.
APEX version : 4.2
Database : 11g (XE)
ords : 2.0.8
please help me ASAP.

Hi Pragya,
thank you for the update.
Another question: could you please give us any reference about these corrections you told about? Maybe they could be relevant in our case too.

Create RESTful web service with CSV format (bug??)

Hi All:
I am using APEX 4.2.2 with APEX listener 2.0.2.
I have create a RESTful web service to retreieve some data from a table. The format is "CSV" (the other option is JSON, which I am not faimilar with).
then I tested and it generate with below sample data.
United States,"Zhang, Kevin",IT
Above data means: Country, fullname, department
As you can see value of fullname is double-quoted and also contains a comma (,) in it.
Then I create a web service reference in a test application. Then I create a a form and report on web service.
The problem is the fullname. The output looks like below:
Country fullname Department
United States "Zhang IT
As you can see, APEX is not able to get fullname correctly.
Anyone see this issue and how to resolve it?
Thanks!
Kevin

Kevin,
I'm not sure I would classify it as a bug so much as an enhancement. We need the ability to set the "Text qualifier" as one can from Excel. This would allow the above to be seen a single a single field and, then, to do what you want. However, as I'm sure you realize, this just doesn't exist at the moment.
So; you could store the first and last names in separate fields in the table (don't forget that you could use virtual columns for this purpose) or simply alter your query to pull them out as if they were separate fields, i.e. use SubStr and InStr.
If you simply must see them in this format when the CSV is opened, you could create a formula in Excel to do this for you.

Problem getting RESTful web service reference working with header value

Hi,
I posted this on Apex Listener forum but since I am not sure problem is with my Application RESTful web service reference or a Listener issue, I am posting here as well:
I am on Apex 4.2.2 and Listener 2.1 and the listener is on WEblogic.
I succeeded to get a RESTful web service working in an application with no header to obtain a full set of data. The data set is very large, so I am now just trying to set up a web service to get a set of data based on a student ID.
I followed the examples shown in the RESTful web service module of SQL Workshop and set up a handler of this type:
https://ourweblogicserver/apex/bnr/ace/students/course_grades/{stid}
The test for this handler succeeded both for JSON output and CSV output in the Workshop test environment.
However, when I try it from a Web Service Reference that I created for my application following what looked like the same approach used on the example video, I get NO data back. If I put a 'stid' directly into a URL of a web browser and do the basic authentication I get the data!!
This is what I have for the Web service reference:
https://ourweblogicserver/apex/bnr/ace/students/course_grades/{stid}
Basic auth set to Yes -- and this is working -- I am able to authenticate
HTTP method Get
output format Text
no response Xpath
no response namespace
defaults for new record and parameter delimiter
NO REST input parameters
Output set for all the fields in the data set queried (same set of data as in my rest service which does not have any http header)
REST HTTP Header : Name stid
I there something I am missing. I am not sure how to troubleshoot this further.
I also tried exactly following the example shown on the Oracle Video for RESTFul web services at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkCvd6P8_OU
and I can't get the 2nd example to work either-- where the header has the bind variable parameter.
Pat

I was able to resolve the problem -- in the latest version of the RESTful web service that I created, I had left out the creation of the Header Parameter bind variable. Once I did that everything works fine!! I was able to test in the application and got the record of an individual student.
Thanks,

InfoPath 2010 and REST web services, custom code button firing twice and second click fires error

Hi,
I have two supposing simple issues which I'm having problems correcting.
If a add a button to the form and write some custom code (See below) to submit some data via a REST Web Service data connection. The code runs but somehow fires the URL twice to the web service.
I've also recreated similar functionality using Rules on a button and some concat formulas and exactly the same thing happens when I the run the data using the Query Data Action, it fires the URL twice at the web service.
How can I stop this.
Secondly, if I use the custom code route, it work correctly the first time it pressed except for the double fire issue, but the second time I click the button the InfoPath internal system throws up an issue. See screen shot below.
Any help would be appreciated.

Basic auth with RESTful WEb service and Web Service reference

Hi, All,
We have made much progress on getting an application working wtih RESTful web services but now are trying to figure out how to lock down a RESTful Web service while making it available for a particular application.
We are using one of the sample 'emp' table web services that come with Apex 4.2 and are trying to apply Basic Auth to the WEb Service via Weblogic filter defined in the web.xml file. That works fine. I now get challenged when I try to go to :
https://wlogic.edu/apex/bnr/ace/hr/empinfo/
And when I authenticate to that challenge I am able to get the data. (we are usiing LDAP authentication at the Weblogic level)
However, I am not sure how to get same basic authentication to work with the Web Service reference in my application. I see the error message in the application when I try to call that Web Service:
401--Unauthorized<
And I see:
"The request requires user authentication. The response MUST include a WWW-Authenticate header field (section 14.46) containing a challenge applicable to the requested resource. The client MAY repeat the request with a suitable Authorization header field (section 14.8). If the request already included Authorization credentials"
How do I provide the credentials in the Web REference or do I provide credentials in the Application?
Web service works fine if I remove the RESTful web service basic auth from the Web.xml file.
Should we NOT use Weblogic basic auth and instead use basic auth from Workspace RESTful web service definition. If so, how do we implement THAT basic auth in the Web Service definition and in the Web SErvice Reference on the application?
Thanks,
Pat

Hi,
I have posted a simple application with the RESTful reference:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=13758
I can give you full privileges on this so you can look at the WEB service reference. Shall I send to you separately for login user?
It is using the RESTful service: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/nd_pat_miller/demo/employee/{deptno}
This RESTful service tests fine when I test from within the RESTful web service module of the Workspace.
I based this on the Video demo tutorial for RESTful web service that Oracle published for 4.2 release. The video seemed to exclude the {deptno} in the URL but when I try that, it doesn't work either.
This is the error I am getting when I run this on my Apex environment: (it, of course, will not run the web service in the apex.oracle.com environment)

Report Bursting with RESTful Web Services SDK

Hi,
We are looking to upgrade to BI 4.x from BI 3.1. We are not sure whether RESTful Web Services SDK is the way to go. We have a requirement where we need to be able to refresh a report, save the whole report content to a specified forma for a team lead/manager, and then section/burst each report to separate files that each is corresponding to the individual employee. In other words, for example, we have a team constent of 1 manager and 4 employees. We want to save one report for the manager with all the content from the 4 employees, and then 4 individual reports that each belong to each employee. We current have a macro code that does this in BI 31 refreshing Deski reports. We want to upgrade to BI 4.X, but the Deski and macro are no longer supported. The macro in BI 3.1 we used to control when to refresh, where to save the reports and update our external datasource that the reports finished refreshing and available for view. We want to keep the same functionality so that it is not a whole redesign of the system when the upgrade happens. Thank you so much for your help. Any sample code, tips and guides are helpful. I am looking to prototype first before I can confirm this will work when upgrading. I have a code snippet in macro (VBA) from BI 3.1 in the attached file for reference if you know of the equivalent.

Hi Raghunath,
Looking at your macro, most of the functionality would be available with REST SDK. With BI 4.x REST is now only SDK which provides APIs to work with webi report. With .NET or Java SDK we could not eeven schedule a webi doc with prompts.
With BI 4.1 REST APIs include.
refresh report, schedule report, save report, export which is done by your macro.
For detailed tasks, such as saving and modifying the report for specific users and send to schedule, you would need to play around with REST Urls to understand the workflow.
For starters take a look at the devleopers guide for REST here:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sbo41/en/sbo41_webi_restful_ws_en.pdf
Here is the doc which compares the availability of SDK APIs with different BI versions.
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-53285
For any Enterprise level tasks, you could always use .NET or Java enterprise SDk and comibe it with your REST app.

Error in REST Web Service with Output Format as Text

Hi All,
I am referencing a REST web service, and can successfully connect to it and retrieve results with the Output Format set to XML.
I don't need the individual node values, I just want to capture the entire XML as a string, and populate a table column with it.
When I create a new Rest web service reference, with Output Format set to Text, and then create a form/report to run it, I get the following error when I click 'Submit':
ORA-06550: line 1, column 63: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "end-of-file" when expecting one of the following: ( - + case mod new not null others avg count current exists max min prior sql stddev sum variance execute forall merge time timestamp interval date pipe
Error Error sending request.
There are control characters in the XML, but surely this is handled by Apex, so I'm not sure what the problem is here.
Any ideas most welcome.
Thanks,
Rhodri

Rhodri:
Application Express expects text response to actually be text response, delimited by other characters denoting a new value, and a new record set. You should leave the response as XML. The XML document will be stored in the xmltype01 column of the collection you specify. You can then convert that xmltype01 column to a clob if you like using .toClobVal().
Regards,
Jason

Problem with RESTful web service

I am running into a problem with Flex Web Services (REST) in trying to get the proper format returned. I can see that the HTTP header is set to
Accept: */*;
rather than
Accept: application/xml
when sending the request. The web service was generated via the web services HTTP data services wizard. I edited it to set the resultFormat to xml
    // Constructor
    public function _Super_UsersService()
        // initialize service control
        _serviceControl = new mx.rpc.http.HTTPMultiService();
         var operations:Array = new Array();
         var operation:mx.rpc.http.Operation;
         var argsArray:Array;
         operation = new mx.rpc.http.Operation(null, "getUsers");
         operation.url = "http://localhost:8888/users";
         operation.contentType = "";
         operation.method = "GET";
         operation.resultFormat = "xml";
         //operation.serializationFilter = serializer0;
         operation.properties = new Object();
         operation.properties["xPath"] = "/";
         operation.resultType = valueObjects.Users;
         operations.push(operation);
         _serviceControl.operationList = operations;
         model_internal::initialize();
How does one configure the accept header?

Hi,
I have posted a simple application with the RESTful reference:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=13758
I can give you full privileges on this so you can look at the WEB service reference. Shall I send to you separately for login user?
It is using the RESTful service: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/nd_pat_miller/demo/employee/{deptno}
This RESTful service tests fine when I test from within the RESTful web service module of the Workspace.
I based this on the Video demo tutorial for RESTful web service that Oracle published for 4.2 release. The video seemed to exclude the {deptno} in the URL but when I try that, it doesn't work either.
This is the error I am getting when I run this on my Apex environment: (it, of course, will not run the web service in the apex.oracle.com environment)
class="statusMessage">Bad Request</span>

JSP page communicating with a MySQL db throw a Glassfih RESTful web service

Hello;
I am en newbie in servlet/JSP stuffs, and as I said in the subject, i'm looking for the best way to make my JSP pages communicate with my db. My application already consists in a RESTful web service that, just for the record, communicates with a JavaFX Client.
(>What i'm looking for is to write datas in my database through this JavaFX client, and it seems like this can only works by passing through a intermediate scripting language like JSP).
To get back on my issue, I don't really know about JSP. I read many tutorials but it still seems confusing to me. Can somebody show me, by a detailed example, how I can do that ? (Preferably by using jsp beans like "usebean", that i find very useful).
Thanks a lot.

don't make your JSP 'communicate' with a database. These tasks are for servlets and specific business logic classes which you can use in your servlets.
To connect to a database, use the JDBC API. Plenty of tutorials about that around the net.
I don't really know about JSPYeah well, you already identified your problem then. The solution is very simple: learn. To be able to learn, get a good resource, such as a book and not some vague tutorials that you find on the net. For example, I always recommend this free online book:
[core servlets 2nd edition|http://pdf.coreservlets.com]
