Integrating Java auth rest api with jsapi report viewer

Cosma Ciprian

Hello all, 
 
 
I am currently working with beta version of iHub16. On the latest Chrome(Versiunea 49.0.2623.112 m).
In order to have a secure application we have concluded to split the authentication.
 
On the server side( uses Java) the iHub Rest-Service to retrieve the authId. The received AuthId always ends with YPeGenj and has a length of about 385 characters. 
 
On the client side( uses jsapi) we try to log-in/ initialize with the authId received from the server. 
This crashed with a message of: "The Username is not provided". 
 
Furthermore if I were to use the returned authId in <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://serverIp:5000/ihub/v1/ihubrestdocs/#!/folders/getFolderItems'>http://serverIp:5000/ihub/v1/ihubrestdocs/#!/folders/getFolderItems</a>, I get the following message:
 
{ "error": 
{ "description": "Authentication failure. The authentication ID is incorrect. Please login again.", "code": "6001", 
"message": "Get Folder Items failed" }
}
 
If I were to generate the authId from the <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://serverIp:5000/ihub/v1/ihubrestdocs/#!/login/auth'>http://serverIp:5000/ihub/v1/ihubrestdocs/#!/login/auth</a>and use it with jsapi it will work. Also the received authId from the login/auth resource has a diffrent size/format then the one returned from the server.
 
Are these 2 AuthIds not compatible? 
 
 
Edit 1: 
 
The server side uses the administrator user to log in, while I only tried with normal users. If I were to use jsapi with this users returned authId I will get a message: "The username is not sent. "
 
Edit 2: 
 
Seams that this is happening because the authId contains some data that is relative to the session/ip/machine it used to make the request. And because the client is another computer the authentication id does not work. 
 
Is there a way to log in with the authId generated from another computer?

What does your JSAPI code look like?
 
Where is the REST API code? On the server? And the JSAPI is on the end user? You won't be able to use the AuthID from the server on the end user.
