Hi, following up on this same topic, how would I get the "_alfAuthTicket" and then the ticket in a .ftl file that is being used by a websrcipt?

The HTTP request object is not available to freemarker templates during their execution.

within a Freemarker template to get the authentication ticket as a string.

thanks,
