Solution Authentication Service

The Solution Authentication service provides access to the solution user token. The service does not provide a direct access to the token but creates an authentication object that you can use to construct a REST client that can send requests to the VMware Aria Automation APIs.

You can access the Solution Authentication service, no matter if the plug-in is Spring-enabled or not.

Procedure

  • ♦ Access the service.
    1. If the plug-in is Spring-enabled: 
      //Object must be declared in the spring context
public class MyDomainObject {
 
 @Autowired
 private SolutionAuthenticationService solutionAuthenticationService;
}
    2. If the plug-in is not Spring-enabled: 
      public class PluginAdaptor implements IServiceRegistryAdaptor {

 private IServiceRegistry registry;
 private SolutionAuthenticationService solutionAuthenticationService;
 @Override
 public void setServiceRegistry(IServiceRegistry registry) {
 this.registry = registry;
 }

 public SolutionAuthenticationService getSolutionAuthenticationService() {
 if (solutionAuthenticationService == null) {
 solutionAuthenticationService = (SolutionAuthenticationService)
registry.getService(IServiceRegistry.SOLUTION_AUTHENTICATION_SERVICE);
 }
 return solutionAuthenticationService;
 }
}
