WCF Using BC.Net - How to get password for LogonAs method on server

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by DAX09 2,470

Hi

The Scenario:

A wcf service hosted on the AX server using BC.Net to connect to AX 09 and call static X++ methods.

The Issue:

When I try to connect using "LogonAs", I am using an App Pool user that is the BC.Net user in AX, but I still need to provide the password before I can connect to AX. I am unable to get the password for security reasons\limitations - how would this approach normally work (service connecting to AX using BC.Net) - most of the examples online use null for the parameters and i guess the default login is picked up?

    There are different ways so it might be better you describe your scenario in detail. Do you want to let the wcf service pass through the user? There are a lot of components involved so it is a bit tricky to get the setup working.

    The solution we have gone for is:

    1) App Pool with BC.Net username and domain

    2) WCF service will run under this App Pool

    3) .Net code will extract Username & Domain from App Pool and connect to AX12 using the local AX config
