Integrate the OneSpan Authentication Server SOAP Client

The SDK provides an integration API in order to make requests to OneSpan Authentication Server. The OneSpan Authentication Server client integration wrapper has two main components:

• A SOAP client
• A wrapper on the SOAP client, providing a high-level interface to OneSpan Authentication Server

The SOAP client allows low-level access to the server, enabling implementation of more complex commands if necessary.

The SOAP wrapper provides a layer that makes integration easier, without having to know all the technical details and SOAP commands. To use this layer, you must understand the key concepts of the OneSpan Authentication Server SOAP solution, such as component type, password format, and request building.

The wrapper is divided into the following different classes:

• Authentication
• Signature

If your organization is impacted by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), ensure that the SOAP communicator interface is configured to use SSL. If an OneSpan Authentication Server component does not support SSL, the SOAP interface must be configured without SSL; however, to be GDPR-compliant, you must set up an encrypted VPN tunnel to secure the communication.

For more information about GDPR, refer to the OneSpan Authentication Server General Data Protection Regulation Compliance Guide.
