Hi,

we are working on an integration with IFS FSM and IFS APPS10. We want to use user IFSCONNECT and need the password in our test environment as clear text and encrypted.

First of all we don’t know the password and would like to reset it.

On DB level we know how to manage.

In version 8, there was an option in installer.cmd to change passwords for all system users, but in version 10 there is change password only for 2 system users available, ifsprint and ifssys.

Who can help us with these 2 questions?

Thank you for your feedback!

Regards Martina

 

Hi @ALHAGMO,

Could you please explain me the requirement of having the encrypted password for IFSCONNECT?

You can reset the password for IFSCONNECT from the "Oracle Users" window (Solution Manager\Security\Oracle Users\Oracle Users).
However, this is same as resetting the password from the DB level.

Cheers !
Dhananjaya.

Hi Dhananjaya,

thank you for your quick feedback! we need to provide this information to a partner, who is creating the integration:

and ofcourse we would not want an external to use ifsapp user and to know and write down the ifsapp user password.

So our idea is to use the ifsconnect user.

In the first param value the password is readable, in the 3rd line it looks like encrypted.

How can we set and get this information on config.xml level?

Thank you for your feedback!

I recommend not using IFSCONNECT in an integration for security reasons. It is much better to have a separate user for this integration which only have rights to the necessary BizAPI’s.

Licensing might also be an issue so contact your IFS representative to see if it is Ok.

Hi Martina,

 

this looks like Base64 encryption. There are free online encoders like this one: https://www.base64encode.org/
