SSO in APEX - Apex Listener (ORDS) on Weblogic

ahebert

Hello,

Like many people, we want to implement SSO in our APEX applications.

Our setup : APEX 4 on the APEX Listener (ORDS) running on a Weblogic server.  We would like for our users to sign in automatically into APEX if they are authenticated by Windows.

I know we can use the HTTP_HEADER variable for authentication scheme.  But the REMOTE_USER variable is returning my apex_public_user's database name.

I found some documentation for setting up SSO in many environement but not on weblogic server. 

Has anyone being successful configuring SSO with this environment?

Focus on finding SSO methods for weblogic.  You will find there is more than one way.

After you have SSO setup with your web server, then APEX (ORDS) is simply a consumer.  Have that application enforce that security requirement and you can then read the header variable.
