Crowd SSO token for an alias

[Ganesh Srinivasan]

Crowd SSO token generation using REST call /session/validate-password works fine for a user. However if I try it on an alias (in Crowd I can set aliases for certain users), then the REST call returns error 400 (Bad Request). Is there support for generating SSO token for aliases?

Thanks in advance.

My understanding of aliases was for adding Crowd to an existing infrastructure where each tool already had usernames assigned. Aliases will not allow the user to login under a single name across all tools.

They must use their specific alias cofigured for that tool. Crowd will then allow the SSO cookie to be used anywhere.
