Background documentation Configuring Basic Authentication  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

If you are not using Single Sign-On (SSO) as the user authentication method, you can use the basic authentication method described below. When using basic authentication, you configure users on the CE server and on the NWDI server as follows:

·        Users on the CE server (the server on which Visual Composer is running) must have their own usernames and passwords. They must have the permissions required to access Visual Composer.

      Each user on the CE server who needs to access the DTR must be also configured on the NWDI server. The username on both servers must be identical, and the user must have the permissions required to access DTR.

      Important: All users on the NWDI server who work on the same CE machine must have the same password. This same password is the one used in the Development Services – Repository Services service configuration as the basic authentication password. On the CE server, users cannot have the same password.

The following diagram illustrates the different username and password combinations that need to be defined on the different servers:
