Hi,

I wrote a webpublic function to integrate with an external application that need to create and update Contacts in SERP with Json structure.

External app send User and Password in Json fields and I need to validate and Login user so all updates are recorded as that User, but also because I cannot create Contacts and execute RecordCheck function if user is not Logged as there are many UserCanAction validations that requiere a valid user session.
Before version 8.5 I use "/DoLogin" web function with User and password parameters in URL by GET method but now it only work with POST method.
There is a funcion called SetCompanyAndLogin but I cannot find anything about it.

How I can login user by code ? Or how I Redirect to that /DoLogin page with Post data by hal?

Regards
