The objective of integrating Oracle Access Manager with BPEL worklist is to provide Single Sign-On for BPEL worklist application. Thus the authentication and authorization part is handled by the Oracle Access Manager.<\/p>\n

My environment\u00a0 has: OAM 10.1.4.3, BPEL 10.1.3.4, OSSO 10.14.1, OID 10.1.4.1<\/p>\n

It is possible to integration OAM with BPEL worklist in two ways:<\/p>\n

1. Direct integration of OAM with BPEL: Check this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. Using OSSO component: First, the BPEL will be integrated with OSSO\u00a0 using the metalink note 753087.1 .\u00a0<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

This will be followed by OAM and OSSO integration.<\/p>\n

In my environment, OAM, OSSO and OID components are installed on one machine and BPEL is residing on different machine.<\/p>\n

Integration Process:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This post does not cover BPEL-OSSO integration as it is straight forward if you follow the metalink note.<\/p>\n

As part of the integration process, WebGate to be installed on WebServer (Oracle HTTP Server) where OSSO is running. When you integrate OAM-OSSO-BPEL, the integration flow happens as explained below.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. User access the BPEL worklist application.<\/li>\n
  2. Due to the integration between BPEL-OSSO, BPEL delegates authentication to OSSO.<\/li>\n
  3. The OSSO server inturn redirects it to OAM for authentication.<\/li>\n
  4. Accordingly, the WebGate on OSSO server intercepts the request and checks with Access Server if the resource is protected or not.<\/li>\n
  5. If the resource is protected, it prompts the user for login details. In my case, I used Form based authentication.<\/li>\n
  6. User enters login details and webgates forwards these details to Access Server for Authentication & Authorization.<\/li>\n
  7. Upon successful authn and authz, Access Server creates OAM cookie and sends it to WebGate.<\/li>\n
  8. OAM WebGate redirects control to mod_osso for validating the user. This will happen by using SSOOblixAuth plugin configured in policy.properties as part of OAM-OSSO integration.<\/li>\n
  9. The OSSO validates the user and creates valid OSSO session and authorizes the user and redirects to BPEL server.<\/li>\n
  10. The user will then see the requested BPEL worklist application.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Notes:<\/strong>
    \nI had used this OSSO approach as the BPEL worklist is residing on AIX server and direct integration requires Access Server SDK component which is not present for AIX machine.<\/p>\n

    Observations:<\/strong><\/p>\n
