Hi there,

I am the developer of a 3rd party widget (included via an iframe with javascript) and a potential client wants to integrate it into their Sharepoint intranet. In order to work properly, I need to at a minimum have a username passed through to my JS code (which I in turn pass as a parameter to the iframe's URL), so that I can distinguish a request as coming from a specific user.

More robust would be a more thorough (and secure) way of passing authentication through, without requiring the user to re-type a username/password.

I have never used Sharepoint though, and on doing some searching myself right now, haven't been able to find a definitive answer.

Does anybody have any advice on whether this is possible? I obviously don't want to say yes to the client if it won't work out technically

Thanks!
