SAP Mobile Platform supports single
sign-on (SSO) authentication for mobile clients that access data from an
SAP back end
by
forwarding credentials from the end user.
The
credential types that may be used (in preferential order within
SAP Mobile Platform are:
- X.509
certificate
-
SSO2
token
- User name and password
An SAP
back-end connection may be checked for "Allow Anonymous", in which case SSO is performed
only if one of the above three credential types is available. Otherwise, technical user
credentials are used for the back-end connection, which is not
SSO.
