User tokens
The User Tokens Settings site preference determine if user information is passed to another application started from Workplace. Passing user information allows a user to access the application without having to log in again. For example, your site can have the optional IBM Enterprise Records add-on enabled and available from the Author page. If user tokens are enabled, the user can open IBM Enterprise Records without logging in again.
Note: User Tokens are only supported when Workplace is deployed in an application managed environment.
You can set the following options:
- Generate user tokens: Select Yes to generate user tokens for use by other applications.
- Accept user tokens: Select Yes to accept user tokens generated by other applications.
- Token timeout interval (minutes): Enter an integer for the timeout interval in minutes. The token expires if there is no active connection between the applications after this amount of time.
User tokens and guest accounts
If you enable user tokens between two Workplace sites, you need to make sure that the guest accounts on both sites use the same user account. If you use different accounts, guest users have full access to all Workplace features.
