Abstract:
While IBM Portal and IBM Connections can be configured to use the same LDAP instance for authentication, there is no out of the box self-registration service for creating a user account in Portal and matching profiles in Connections.In this presentation I will talk about how we have designed a self-registration service for an Internet-facing Portal and Connections web site. The solution uses the PUMA REST API for managing user accounts in Portal (and thus, in LDAP) and the Profiles REST API for managing Profiles in IBM Connections.
