Oxygen XML Forum

Hi,
I am getting ready to share the documentation generated using Oxygen WebHelp with a client. This content is highly sensitive and needs to be shared using some form of access control. We are toying with the following idea in order to simplify the access control:
- Store the generated webhelp content on an internal server.
- Provide a link to the generated webhelp content from within a pre-existing system that our clients use and which has access control via login.
- The code behind for this link will read from our internal server, pull down the code for the webhelp webpage and render it within the pre-existing system.

This works fine for the HTML pages but falls over when using the search functionality.
I was wondering if anyone has experience with this challenge that they can advise on?
Thanks in advance,
Ann

Hello,

Unfortunately WebHelp output does not implement any form of access control but you can use the following tutorial if you are using Apache server: Apache Server - Authentication and Authorization to restrict access to the published WebHelp.
