currently the module logs into Alfresco from a single account. If you look at site configuration>CMIS Settings, you can see and change the Alfresco repo user that is used.

I believe that passing user credentials to Alfresco from Drupal is on the list of enhancements but not sure of the timeframe.

Correct I have the default "admin" user accessing Alfresco with the CMIS plugin in Drupal.
Thanks for clarifying that this feature is not available at this time.

Cheers

Hi,

I was looking for a solution to use the same users in Drupal and Alfresco.
LDAP seems a good approach but when you use the CMIS module for Alfresco integration, you need to provide a default user who is the user that connects from Drupal to Alfresco.
Is there any way to override this and connect to Alfresco using Drupal logged in user to use Alfresco file/directory permissions?

Cheers!
Pedro.
