Integrate Agile PLM File System with Other system

Hi,

Without logging to Agile PLM application how to get/view the Files of Part and CO.
One way is use a web service and download the attachment and view.

Let me know any other way we can do this?

Thanks
Divakar

Even if you use a web service you have to authenticate (log in) and create a session with the agile system. Why don’t you want to log in?

HI,
You can create a custom web application that doesn’t need authentication and use stored credential to open a Session in the backend. With that session (the same user/password for all request) you can use Agile SDK to get attachments and return them as response.

That’s true, but you’re still logging in with the stored credential, just not requiring the user to enter the authentication credentials and sharing that stored user account / license with multiple users in your custom application. Its my understanding doing that would violate Oracle licensing agreement for Agile.

OP did ask ‘without logging into the agile application’  IMHO the only way to truly do this is not use the agile application and write a standalone app to query the DB and retrieve files from the vault.

Until he reveal what he is trying to achieve, we’re guessing as to the best advice.

Thanks for your suggestions, 

Antonio La Gamma, I thought the same way using web service by passing credentials is one way.

Adrian Kendall, I agree with you on logging(it’s required)  

but my question is one way is web service (hard code the login  information) and user need not required to keeing in password.

is there any other way(Other than web service) we can download files without user and password (by hard coding uname and pwd)
