Florian Müller commented on CMIS-887:
-------------------------------------
You are looking for an [authentication
provider|https://chemistry.apache.org/java/0.12.0/maven/apidocs/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/commons/spi/AuthenticationProvider.html].
The best way to start is extend the [standard authentication
provider|https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/chemistry/opencmis/trunk/chemistry-opencmis-client/chemistry-opencmis-client-bindings/src/main/java/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/client/bindings/spi/StandardAuthenticationProvider.java?view=markup]
and override the {{getHTTPHeaders()}} method.
You may also ask the Alfresco community. I'm pretty sure you are not the first
one doing that.
> RunAs Authentication possiblity
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: CMIS-887
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-887
> Project: Chemistry
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: opencmis-client, opencmis-server
> Affects Versions: OpenCMIS 0.12.0
> Environment: Alfresco 4.2
> Reporter: Tahir Malik
>
> There is no possibility to define a RunAs user through CMIS.
> At the moment we have a custom webscript in Alfresco which logs in as the
> RunAs user and returns the ticket.
> Then we use the ticket in the password field and do our stuff.
> It would be nice to extent the Authentication mechanism to supply extra
> parameters and control them server side so this is not needed.
> If this is already possible, then I didn't knew that and I'd love to have
> some info how to do that.
