Requesting and Using SSO Tickets

Requesting and Using Single-Sign-On (SSO) Tickets with the API

• Trusting an account

  With FirstClass, you can "Trust" an account and use that account to request a login SSO ticket and then use that ticket to log in as that user. The FirstClass SSO ticket contains all login information for a given user. No additional information is needed other than the SSO ticket to log in to FirstClass. As this is an extremely powerful feature, it is important that you consider additional security measures to prevent unauthorized access to user accounts.

  Please see the chapter on SSO security for more detail.
