Re: OAuth2 authentication with hosted web service

[Jon Paris <jon.paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's a great pity that it has to be in Java.  Since IWS' role in life is to surface RPG code with Java hidden in the background, it makes no sense to me to have to write this exit code in Java. Why not allow RPG code to be called?

Setting up the webservice to do this was fairly straightforward, but we'd like to use more than the "Basic" authentication available (username/password) with the integrated web server wizard (IWS).  Do you have any experience or links explaining if and how IBM i can support this?
