Slice - Pulse Integration - default browser opens during Pulse authentication
Slice v4.5.2
Arc+ 4.5.2 (Cubewise cloud)
When Pulse is configured to authenticate via IBM ID Slice opens authentication url using default system browser (Chrome) instead of staying inside EO.
Slice should only use EO browser.

Hi @aeremenko,
Do the above branch have the changes that makes Slice opens up Pulse on login via an external browser already?
I need to test the changes I have made, and at the same time to check whether Arc can simply check on a Pulse URL on login status.
Could you let me know or help confirm if this has been done and on which branch of Arc?
This is the behavior I am looking for,
- User opens Slice
- With Slice, open up
Server Explorer(EO Browser) - With Arc, open up and login with Pulse (Opens up an External Browser)
- With Arc, polls and checks a Pulse API to know if the Pulse login triggered by the user has completed
Step 3 is where Arc needs to be updated to open an external browser instead of EO. I have made changes on another branch on Pulse for this.
Step 4 is what I am hoping to verify as well that it is possible from Arc, to minimize both our changes.
Let me know if you have clarifications on the above.
Thanks!
Paul
Hi Paul,
No, there is no branch that has this functionality. Pulse login page always opens in EO in Slice. Is there a build of Pulse I could use? Once I have the build with this API endpoint I can update and test Arc and Slice.
Thanks, Andrey

Hi @vbhatia
We are currently working on enhancement in Arc and Pulse to modify the way authentication process is done.
I have updated Arc/Slice code to include extra parameter (page-keep-open=1) in pulse login url.
This requires latest build of pulse available here
Slice can open EO browser for Pulse and IBM authentication.
changed milestone to %review
Nice one Andrey!
Could you please review this and merge it into develop?
It would be great to test this on the timesheet server. We will need a new interim build for Pulse and Arc.
Cheers,
Vincent

Nice one @plim ,
It looks like it worked:
I had to retry a couple of times but it worked:
After closing the pop-up, I'm connected to Pulse.
@Shanoo ,
We should add this step to the Testing Matrix: Connecting to Pulse through Slice using https://timesheets.cubewise.com:7070 as the Arc server for Slice.
Cheers,
Vincent
