Making programmatic requests using OSLC RM V1 or OSLC RM V2

All OSLC RM V1 and OSLC RM V2 programmatic requests are protected through OAuth 1.0a, and all user interface requests use the standard IBM® Engineering Requirements Management DOORS® - Web Access (DWA) username / password security framework.

OAuth is mandated for both provider and consumer in the Authentication section of the Jazz™ Integration Patterns Checklist (available on Jazz.net athttps://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/CALMIntegrationPatternsChecklist).

In DWA, we follow this logic for OSLC RM V1 and OSLC RM V2 requests:
  • For programmatic requests, OAuth is mandatory.
  • For user interface requests, use the standard user name and password login mechanism.
It is assumed that programmatic requests are sent using the accept mime types defined in the various specifications. It is also assumed that user interface requests are sent using the standard browser accept mime types, such as text/html, application/xhtml+xml, */*, or any other mime type defined in a supported specification.
