URL API issue to get CSRF parameter

[jenji]

Hi,

I am a newer to develop the webex function. Now, I have to get a new parameter CSRF by calling p.php?AT=LI, but I have a problem when I use this URL API. That is, in website 'https://clks.webex.com/clks', using username: rajasoun & password:xxxx, I can log in successfully. however, when I use 'https://clks.webex.com/clks/p.php?AT=LI&WID=rajasoun&PW=xxxx', the url will return 'https://clks.webex.com/mw0401lsp13/mywebex/default.do?siteurl=clks&AT=LI&WID=rajasoun&ST=FAIL&RS=BadWebExIDOrPassword <https://clks.webex.com/mw0401lsp13/mywebex/default.do?siteurl=clks&AT=LI&WID=rajasoun&ST=FAIL&RS=BadWebExIDOrPassword>'. Thus, I cannot get any CSRF parameter. So, what’s the problem is it? Thanks very much!

Regards

The URL API no longer allows sensitive information to be sent in a HTTP GET request, please see this post for more information:

If your making a new integration, its highly recommended to use the WebEx XML API, the WebEx URL API is considered a Legacy API and does not contain the features the XML API Provides.

Hi, Ryan

Thanks for your answer. And I have another question. That is, how can I get CSRF parameter if using SSO way to log in the webex site.

Thanks

You should be able to provide provide a MU parameter with a URL to return to upon successful login, the CSRF should be cleanly passed back to this URL.
