One P6 EPPM Web Services server instance can control more than one database and you can specify an authentication mode for a database through the Authentication Configuration wizard.
You can use the Primavera P6 Administrator to set the authentication mode, token profiles and message protection settings. If you use SAML for P6 EPPM Web Services, you must use Single Sign-On or LDAP authentication for P6 EPPM. You must configure additional settings for LDAP authentication with secure communication (SSL) between the P6 EPPM Web Services server and the LDAP server.
To configure P6 EPPM Web Services and P6 to work together, you will need to set the P6 EPPM Web Services settings in the Primavera P6 Administrator.
Note:
- A P6 EPPM Web Services configuration might include database instances that are not set to the same authentication mode as the P6 EPPM Web Services server. If a user connects and requests a database that is set to a different authentication mode than the P6 EPPM Web Services server, an error message displays. The user must select a database that matches the authentication mode set for the P6 EPPM Web Services server.
