Add configuration entries in your FGLPROFILE file

You need to add a set of configuration entries that specify the security configuration for GWS clients accessing an HTTPS server.

In this task you add configuration entries (ws.* ) in your FGLPROFILE file for the HTTPS server URL and for HTTP authentication when accessing the HTTPS server. For an example, see FGLPROFILE: HTTP(S) Proxy Authentication.

Important: On GMI mobile devices the iOS SSL/TLS layer is used for HTTPS, and the device Keychain® typically holds the server certificate authority list. Therefore, the FGLPROFILE file security settings are ignored with the exception of the following: security.global.ca, security.global.ca.lookuppath, and security.global.systemca.
Add configuration entries for the server.
The following entries must be defined with an unique identifier (such as "myserver") :
  1. ws.myserver.url = "https://www.MyServer.com/gas/ws/r/MyWebService"

    (Line breaks added for document readability)

  2. ws.myserver.security = "id1"
    Where the value (id1 in this example) must match the unique identifier defined by the client security entry created in Configure for the client certificate.
Tip: The unique identifier "myserver" can be used in the BDL client code in place of the actual URL.
