I have already developed front-end application in Angular2 and back-end in ASP.net web APIs. I had used Windows authentication as enabled because I want to detect requesting user. Both applications are hosted in IIS server(Windows Server 2012). When I load angular app it load login prompt and when give correct user credentials data loading happen correctly. But I want to know a way to load them without login prompt, authenticate automatically.
This is the way I detect request user in web APIs.
string user = HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["LOGON_USER"]; //Get the current user...
userID = user.Split('\\')[1];
This is a sample TS script send request to Windows Authenticated Web APIs from Angular Services.
getPersonalInfo(): Observable<IPersonalInfo> {
return this._http.get(localStorage.getItem('WebApiURL') +"api/PersonalInfo/" , { withCredentials: true })
.map((response: Response) => <IPersonalInfo>response.json())
.catch(this.handleError);
}
When restart the browser this login ask every time.
I want to access them with out this login...
Actually, this login prompt occurs because there is communication between two technologies (ASP.net & Angular 2) by passing windows windows credentials. So it need shake-hand authentication when call windows authenticated API.
I was lucky to find a solution by changing privacy settings through browser. So I got ability to call API's without login prompt.
Here is the way to do that.
Settings -> Open Proxy settings -> Privacy ->Sites
In here you can add domain where your back-end APIs are already hosted as in example. After that it take as trusted domain and further more there is no any login prompt accruing.
