No we don't currently support this but I am just trying to think this
through from a security perspective if we wanted to add a feature.
We can't include the user's security token in all of the returned stream
url's by default. I would have to be requested.

Would you want the client to request the document with an extra extension
parameter indicating that the stream url should be returned with the
current users LTPA token embedded? (includeAuthToken=true)

                                                                     |

Jay,

I've re-read your email, and I think I misunderstood what you were
saying...

*"We currently only support LTPA tokens with the FileNet CMIS server.   So
if your client adds a 'Cookie' header with a value of a valid LTPA token
(for the domain where the CMIS and CE server reside)  your request will
succeed without a challenge for credentials. "*

This is fine if we were actually constructing the HTTP request ourselves,
but we're not - the Daeja ViewOne applet is doing it.

*"...would you need us to support the passing of the token as a parameter
in the Content stream URL?"*

This would in fact help - if the content stream URL contained the token, I
could just pass that URL to the applet and it can do the rest.  As it is,
does P8 support any URL of this type to retrieve content?

Thanks,

Tim
