Crowd allows your applications to authenticate users against Crowd's user directories. Crowd ships with ready-made connectors ('Crowd Clients') for several popular applications (see 1.1.1 Supported Applications and Directories for the complete list). If you need to connect Crowd to one of these applications, please see 3. Managing Applications. If you need to connect Crowd to an application that is not listed, you can achieve this by creating a Crowd Client for your application, using the SOAP API. Creating a Crowd ClientCrowd ships with Java Client Libraries which simplify the process of communicating with the SOAP API. If you have a Java application, you can use these libraries. If you are using a language other than Java (e.g. PHP, Ruby, etc), please use the SOAP API directly. For assistance please see:
Next Steps:After creating your Crowd Client, please see 3.2.7 Integrating Crowd with a Custom Application. Related Topics |
