Login / authenticate automatically

[warchild]

Hi all,

I am trying to find a way to jump to a specific BPM model in the modeler without loging in via Explorer Login Screen (and without navigating through the Explorer frontend to the model workspace).

For example directly here:
http://localhost:8080/activiti-explorer/modeler.html?modelId=1561

Probably thats a weired way and the Explorer frontend is just not made for that but I'm not a Java Pro and my understanding is very limited. From what I've learned over the hours I spent in this forum is to authenticate via REST API with JSON like written here:
https://forums.activiti.org/content/how-login-rest-services-javascript
https://gist.github.com/mayank-io/2464057

But I dont know if thats only a possible way to communicate with the Process Engine and not with the explorer frontend. It would be very very kind if someone can tell me how to get this worked or what the possibilities are.

Best regards from Berlin, Germany

Logging into the rest api does not mean anything for Explorer, those are two different things.
One way to go about this is to extract the javascript for the modeler and the html page from the Explorer code (but if you're not a Java developer … that's not easy) and tweak the rest api's to not need authentication…
