User replication involves synchronising each user in the OEM application with a named user in Yellowfin.
This allows Yellowfin to identify the user who is logged in, and to apply any restrictions that may be required. Synchronisation is usually performed using web service calls from the OEM application to Yellowfin. This can also be managed manually if users in the OEM application are generally static.
This section will outline how to create, manipulate, and delete users via web services. It is assumed that the web service is called to mirror user changes immediately after a user modification is made in the OEM application.
