Calling Lawson Authentication via lawson-httpclient.jar

lawson-httpclient.jar provides an API for Java-based clients to programmatically authenticate into the Lawson system and access any web-exposed service in Lawson System Foundation (LSF) 10.0.x. A Lawson customer could use this API to, for example, interface with LSF from an application external to Lawson.

Note: At the time of this document's most recent publication, the following authentication methods can be used with the API without additional configuration:

  • ldapbind

  • Kerberos

Note: Use of the API with claim-based (SAML) authentication requires additional setup. Details are in the Infor Lawson 10 Authentication Configuration Guide.
