SSH key based authentication using LDAP

SSH Key based authentication with LDAP is not supported in B2BI, and also with SEAS integration.


Even though SEAS has SSH Key support with LDAP, SEAS integration APIs with B2BI does not have support for sending SSH Key.


During a sftp authentication, B2Bi is not able to send the user ssh key received from the SFTP client to SEAS. Therefore SEAS cannot verify the key against the one stored in the LDAP server.


This idea is raised to request this functionality to be added in the application.

What is your industry? Automotive
How will this idea be used?

With this idea, we could use the public keys stored in our LDAP without having to store them twice into the B2Bi database.
