Summary0008598: Providing other authentification methods then username/password via webservice
Description

Hi,

We are using mantisconnect for logging exceptions from our applications (running by customers) into our mantis installation.

The MantisConnect method "mc_issue_add" is only providing access to the bugtracker by using the username / password combination.

It's working great for us. BUT:

  • We are using a second WebService providing the security for us, which mantis cannot provide at this time.
  • If we wouldn't use the second WebService we must provide Informations for a Account in mantis in our code. The Method is requiring the password in PLAINTEXT, not as a md5/sha1/whatever hash.

It would be great, if we could say in the administrationinterface, that user "xyz" has access via WebService, and mantis would provide an hashonly (or apikey...) authentification to the BugTracker.

The Key could be a md5 hash from username/password combination and it would be much more useable then the current methods ;(

TagsNo tags attached.
