How to switch access group when authenticating ?
Hello,
At my current customer, we are implementing some SSO authentication.
The goal here is to have an unauthenticated user to go through an authentication Service and call the activity.
From this activity, we want to open an AppID record to find the access group to switch to, based on HTTP headers.
We had a look at the standard SSO example activity which does something very similar but it is using java functions that are now deprecated.
What new way can we use to switch access group dynamically ?
Thank you,

Hello all,
problem solved.
The secret was to :
- add possible accessgroups to Requestor Type
- use this java code to switch below
Hope it helps,

I can think of two operations you can trace to see how to do it. One would be the standard interactive login process. The other would be a requestor that's already logged in when they choose the switch-application feature on the portal, which really means switch-access-group. /Eric

Hi Eric,
Thanks for your answer.
in both scenarios my limitation is that the access group needs to be part of the list of access groups of the user.
In this scenario it is not.
It is a set of specific authentication rules.
