AuthenticateWithPlm Function

Return value

Promise<boolean>

A Promise that, if fulfilled, resolves to a Boolean if the authentication with the configured PLM system either:

• true: was successful.

• false: failed.

Discussion

The function only launches the authentication process. The exact workflow depends on the PLM connector configuration and current authentication state. If no active authentication exists, the system will ask a user to sign in to the PLM system. Upon successful authentication, an authentication token is obtained and used for subsequent authentications until it expires.
