RSA SecurID .NET API for web services

[AliTariq]

Hi,

We are developing a web portal and need to integrate it with RSA SecurID for authentication. For this our development team needs an API for .NET, i have searched the RSA Knowledge Base and found only C and JAVA API's.

Can anyone share the API for .NET (C#).

Thank you.

Hi Ali,

Please talk to Support team about this. You might be able to use AMIS to make REST calls from your .NET app.

Hi Ali,

You can just use the C API.

Simply by 2 steps,

1. Import the C Dll

2. Declare the method stubs

Here's a quick example:

Hi Oliver,

@oliver

I am browsing through RSA AuthSDK_C_v8.6.0_75.06_03_16_13_30_14.

Which dll exactly we need to import into C# application to declare method Sub?
