[SOLVED] Authentication token

[tsx]

What is the default timeout for the authentication token? How can I change that?

I'm trying a get all the data from few large mail boxes (~350k mails + ~40k attachments). I'm trying to reuse the authentication token but I'm getting "auth credentials have expired" message after some time.

I'm using SOAP in conjunction with Java.

Thanks Skenkin, but I couldn't find answer to my question. Am I missing something?

I'm using the SoapHttpTransport class. The authentication tokens for my admin transport as well as user transport are timing out. It appears the timeout seems to be 1 hour.

Here is the piece of code I'm using to authenticate

Element request = Element.XMLElement.mFactory
                    .createElement(AdminService.DELEGATE_AUTH_REQUEST);

            Element account = request.addElement(AdminService.E_ACCOUNT);
            account.addAttribute(AdminService.A_BY, "id");
            account.setText(accountID);
            Element response = myAdminHttpTransport.invoke(request);
            String authToken = response.getElement(AdminService.E_AUTH_TOKEN)
                    .getText();
            myUserHttpTransport.setAuthToken(authToken);

            String sessionId = response.getAttribute(
                    ZimbraSoapContext.E_SESSION_ID, null);

            if (sessionId != null) {
                myUserHttpTransport.setSessionId(sessionId);
            }

This code doesn't show it, but after authenticating once, I store the session id and authentication token in a pool that I reuse instead of authenticating every time.

How can I increase the timeout for these tokens?

With the following code you can set the time the connection will be available:

                DelegateAuthResponse dar = sp.delegateAuth(
                        Provisioning.AccountBy.name, userLogin, durationInSecond);
                ZAuthToken authToken = dar.getAuthToken();
                Options options = new Options(authToken, Z_ADMIN_URL);
                ZMailbox zUserMailbox = new ZMailbox(options);

[tsx]

You are right. I figured it out yesterday. I added the "duration" attribute to my delegate authentication method and everything worked as expected.

I appreciate your help.

Thanks.
