Reading Windows logged in user account details
Hi,
I have a requirement to read windows logged in useraccount before my authentication service rule can be triggered. Flow is Users will launch Pega application, unauthenticated session would begin, we need to call a webservice to retrieve information based on windows login id and then initiate authentication process.
Looking for a way to get windows login id through kerberos either through a function or a java step. Is it possible ?
Note: we cannot use kerberos authentication service for overall authentication since we would get SAML from our IDP. What I am looking for is to pre activity to actual authentication service.

@DeenaDayalanM Could you clarify your scenario?
You could use Kerberos authentication and the IdP for authorisation if that is the requirement. I'm not clear if you have already a SAML authentication why you'd need to get to retrieve the operator from a service given that Windows can be integrated with the same IdP that your SAML service and you'll retrieve the data from the active session.
