Hi, I think others have already done a great job in explaining why the password/userid file approach won't work like that. But there is the ILS-DI and the REST API that can be used to implement authentication with external services if none of the other suggestions is an option. Hope this helps, Katrin On 18.10.23 07:13, Rupinder Singh wrote:
Hi, I am thinking I can use koha as an identity provider for other Librayr services like repository and off-campus remote access, etc. Because, In koha, we usually already have complete details of our patrons, and we also give koha login credentials to them, I was thinking if we use the borrower table from the database, and share the username and password fields for other external services. just a thought, please give your views on this possibility.
Thank you Rupinder Singh _______________________________________________
