Sync External Users within AEM

Avatar

Level 10

Hi All,

We have the login component on the page that is only specific to Health care professionals. Whenever user logs in, it will be authenticated on the different database.

I am using the Rest web-service for user authentication and I am getting the user details in the form of JSON response as per the example below.

{serviceResponse={"returnCode":0,"errorMessage":null,"resultPrincipal":{"id":"B12297E6-4E94-9848-E7E0-7D99F9916076","attributes":{"gender":1,"Cegedim_security_level":1,"userType":"XXXX","login":"ratna1.kumar@gmail.com","profession":"OTHER","postalcode":"411028","UID":"B12297E6-4E94-9848-E7E0-7D99F9916076","country":"IN","professionalPhone":"8378063385","firstname":"Rohit","email":"ratna1.kumar@gmail.com","name":"Nagare","city":"Pune"}}}, httpResponseCode=200}

Now I need to sync these user details within AEM. Can anyone tell me how to implement it or how to proceed.

Thanks,

Ratna.

Once you pull the user data from a database - you can use the Jackrabbit API to create users and even groups in AEM

Hi Ratna,

is the page being restricted in AEM using a CUG to force login or is all the login functionality implemented front end only? (If front end, what happens if the user disabled JS, do they still see the page?)

You could write a custom authentication handler to creation of the user with the response from the web-service call.
