-====== No-code integration ====== 
-===== Overview ===== 
-ADUCID offers No—code integration as default integration method. It is implemented a set of modules including Apache web server and ADUCID core components. As result, target application receives user login name in http header (e.g. REMOTE_USER). 
-Many applications support header authentication by default or have authentication module available or can be easily modified to user header authentication.

- 
-===== How it works ===== 
-  - User opens a web application 
-  - Apache resolves it with code 401 - unauthenticated 
-  - [[integration:binder|ADUCID Binder]] page is diplayed - it is ADUCID authentication page with login button and QR code 
-  - As soon as user authenticates page is reloaded and proxypass used to retrieve the back-end application for user 
-  - Or Apache has to handle 403 Unauthorized - see [[integration:authorization|Authorization in No-code]] 
- 
-In Apache configuration just require authentication: 
-   require valid user 
-===== REMOTE_USER or any other attribute ===== 
-User ID is sent to application in header attribute - REMOTE_USER 
-In ADUCID AIM it is called UDI 
-As we use Apache you can rename it to anything else - some applications use x-forwarded-user or other user ID 
- 
-===== Security remarks ===== 
-Apache has to be accessible only via TLS (https) 
-Back-end application has to be separated and accessible only from Apache (http, ajp, ...) 
-Apache installed for ADUCID shouldn't be used for applications. User another instance of Apache instead. 
-Headers from client are not transported to the back-end as ProxyPass is used (unless you configure Apache to do it) 
-So if users sents REMOTE_USER to Apache, it is wiped out and target application won't see it
