Connecting the Siebel Server to the Analytics Web Server

For segmentation and list generation, you need to connect the Siebel Marketing operational application (on the Enterprise Siebel Server) to the Analytics Web Server. To connect to the Analytics Web Server, you need to change the User ID and Password fields to the default login for the Analytics Web Server that you plan to use. This login is the user ID that is used to authenticate requests to the Marketing module.

You need to perform this setup to make sure that Siebel Server can communicate to Analytics Server during program and campaign design, campaign load, list generation, and campaign launch. For example, when a user submits a request for campaign load or list generation, the requests to the Marketing module use this login for impersonation when the user's password is unavailable.

Impersonation is used to authenticate a user, allowing access to the Analytics Web Server when the user's password is unavailable. The default login is used to authenticate and create a session, and then the login Id is changed to the user Id of the person who submitted the request. Impersonation is essential to enforce appropriate visibility to Analytics Web catalog objects, Analytics metadata, and actual user data from various data sources, based on the User Id of the person who submitted the request.

NOTE:  Passwords are encrypted for new server records. To encrypt the password for existing server records, select the record and reenter the password.

To change the user ID and password to the Analytics Web Server login

1. Log in to the Marketing application as the administrator.
2. Navigate to Administration - Marketing screen > Servers.
3. In the Servers list, query for Name = Default Analytics Web Server.

   The Type field should be Siebel Analytics Web Server.

4. Scroll down to the Parameters list.
5. In the Parameters list, click Authentication Service (SAWSessionServiceSoap) and perform the following steps:
   1. In the Outbound Web Services view, in the Service Ports list, change the first part of the address (default value is CHANGEME) to match the server name and domain of your Siebel Analytics Web Server running the Marketing module.

      The address needs to be the full path name. For example, if your Marketing Server is named MarketingServer1, the full address for the JobManagementService would be the following:

   http://MarketingServer1/analytics/saw.dll?SoapImpl=jobManagementService.

   2. Click the back button in the browser window.
6. In the Parameters list, click Catalog Service (WebCatalogServiceSoap) and perform the following steps:
   1. In the Outbound Web Services view, in the Service Ports list, change the first part of the address (default value is CHANGEME) to match the server name and domain of your Siebel Analytics Web Server running the Marketing module.
   2. Click the back button in the browser window.
7. In the Parameters list, click Job Execution Service (JobManagementServiceSoap) and perform the following steps:

   2. Click the back button in the browser window.
8. Click Clear Cache.

   You should not need to restart the Siebel Server for this change to be effective.
