Enable Auto-logon

Before you enable the Auto-logon feature for the Sales Center, enable the ActivityToken based sign-on for the WebSphere Commerce Server.

 

Enable the ActivityToken based sign-on

  1. Open the WebSphere Commerce configuration file.

  2. Locate the following element:
    <ActivityTokenBasedSSO
      display="false"
      enabled="false"
      ActivitySSOTokenExpiry="300"
    /> 
    
    

  3. Change enabled="true" as shown:
    <ActivityTokenBasedSSO
      display="false"
      enabled="true"
      ActivitySSOTokenExpiry="300"
    /> 
    
    

    The default value of the ActivitySSOTokenExpiry is 300 seconds. You can change this to suit your requirement though IBM recommends that it not exceed a few minutes. Once a token is generated, it is valid only for the time (in seconds) specified in ActivitySSOTokenExpiry. If the client returns the token after the expiry period, then the user will not be allowed to log in.

  4. Save and close the file.

  5. Restart the WebSphere Commerce Server instance.
