Configure Web Service Tester X.509 Authentication

Configure Web Service Tester X.509 Authentication

Create a web service test. Configure an integration system user with a username that corresponds to a key store alias name, but without the
@tenant-name
suffix. Assign the appropriate user-based group for the web service to the integration system user.
You can configure a number of security options in Workday Studio's Web Service Tester. The
X.509 Authentication
options enable you to select a key store alias that corresponds to an integration system user and the associated private and public key pair.

  2. Select the
    X.509 Authentication
    check box.
  3. Select a username from the

  4. (Optional.) Click
