using secure ArcGIS Server services

[JörgMoosmeier]

Hi all,

I have setup my AGS with SQL-Server/Token based security. Works just fine within the REST directory and ArcGIS Desktop.
I'm having trouble using a secure service in ArcGIS.com (adding in My content) or accessing the secure service in ArcGIS.com Viewer or Explorer Online.
Is it possible at all to use secure services (either Token based or HTTP basic/digest) in ArcGIS.com and these viewers?

Thank you
Joerg

The first thing I check is whether the token endpoint is visible externally.

http://<Server>/ArcGIS/rest/info

Check that the Token Service URL is accessible externally. If not, you need to edit the web.config files, located here for IIS.

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ArcGIS\rest\web.config
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ArcGIS\Tokens\web.config

Also, to connect in ArcGIS Online, it must be SSL enabled with a valid certificate.

Once you get it configured correctly, try to generate a token

https://<server>/ArcGIS/Tokens/gettoken.html

hope this helps,

Mike
