We have a SharePoint site, with an external access through UAG 2010.
We have developed a Native mobile application, aiming to grab data from the SP and display the data on the mobile (Android and iOS).
The data is restored by calling a webservice hosted next to the SP DB, which grabs the data from the SharePoint.
Our problem now is that we cannot connect from the mobile native application to the web services because of the UAG challenge... And since the application is native, we dont have the option to show the credentials of the UAG as if this is a web browser request...
We have the option to use some predefined credentials to bypass the UAG, however we don't know how to send the credentials to the UAG from a Native application...
Also I understand that the UAG requests the credentials once, then the browser is automatically authenticated using the sessionID... My 2nd question is, how will this be handled on the mobile native app? should we include something in the webservice call request in order to cash the authentication or the sessionID?
