hoe to configure the Authentication Token in Reports controller

[Pragati]

Hello,

I am using the Telerik Angular Report Viewer and Reporting REST service to configure Telerik Reporting. However, I am unable to obtain the authorization token needed to set the connection string. I have implemented the Telerik custom report source resolver in my application. After reading a few articles, I learned that the authorizationToken can be set in the HTML file. However, I am unsure how to apply this token in my report controller or within my custom source resolver.

Telerik angular viewer :

<div class="modal fade show full-width" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" style="display:block">

            <div class="viewer-container">

                <tr-viewer #viewer1

                                     [containerStyle]="viewerContainerStyle"

                                     [serviceUrl]="msServiceURL"

                                     [reportSource]="mobjReportSrc"

                                     [viewMode]="'CONTINUOUS_SCROLL'"

                                     [scaleMode]="'FIT_PAGE_WIDTH'"

                                     [scale]="1.0"

                                     [ready]="ready"

                                     [viewerToolTipOpening]="viewerToolTipOpening"

                                     [enableAccessibility]="false"

                                     [keepClientSideReportInstance] = "true"

                                     [authenticationToken] ="strToken"> </tr-viewer>

            </div>

</div>

Report controller -

[Route("api/BME/[Controller]")]
[ApiController]
public class ReportsController : ReportsControllerBase
{
    public int ClientSessionTimeout { get; set; }
    public ReportsController(IReportServiceConfiguration reportServiceConfiguration, IConnectionFactory connectionFactory)
        : base(reportServiceConfiguration)
    {

    }

 

Thank You,

Pragati

Hi Pragati,

Thank you for the shared code and the additional information!

I see that you have already implemented the passing of a token in the HTML code through the authenticationToken property.

Now, to authorize the controller, you can follow the instructions from the Setting up authorization in Reporting REST Service controller - Telerik Reporting KB article.

Please try the suggested approaches in the article and let me know if you need further assistance.
