§The Security Service allows you to sign in and sign
out.
§
§Upon successful sign in, a
security ticket is returned. Copy the
ticket to the other service objects to allow them to make API
calls.
§
§Vault Workgroup/Collaboration/Professional are license
managed.
§A license is consumed as soon as you sign in.
§The license is freed when you sign out.
§After 30 minutes of no API calls, the server
automatically logs out.
§If you have multiple connections
with the same user name (ex. Inventor and Vault Explorer running at the
same time), only 1 license is consumed.
§If you have multiple connections
with different user names, each connection consumes a separate
license.
§There is an option to sign in as read only. This will not consume a license.
