Hi All,

Using Nuwans code pointer, I managed to create SSO session in the
bamdashboard app. We should be able to check the session param and grant
access to the pages in the app.

However, the dashboard app calls in backend services to retrieve info. As
per current code, this is done like below,

get the admin cookie using logged in user credentials - > use the admin
cookie for subsequent admin call requests.

with SSO enablement we no longer have/need the user credentials within our
app.

The use case of getting admin info from carbon admin services, falls under
server to server authentication category (jaggery application being the
client here). The logged in user has nothing to do with api calling part.


so,

1. user authenticate to the dashboard via SAML SSO
2 the dashboard app consumes admin services using pre-defined credentials
(dashboard-user with admin credentials)

would do i guess. Any concerns. ? Please correct me if I'm interpreting
something wrong...
