Configuring SSL for the SharePoint Notification Listener Activity in the Plug-in

You can configure SSL settings for the SharePoint Notification Listener activity in the plug-in to secure the data exchange.

Before you beginBefore configuring SSL for the SharePoint Notification Listener Activity, you have to configure SSL on the TIBCO Enterprise Message Service server.

ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Plug-in for Microsoft SharePoint supports both one-way and two-way SSL authentication:

  • In one-way SSL authentication mode, the client verifies the identity of the server.
  • In two-way SSL authentication mode, the client verifies the identity of the server and passes its identity to the connected server. The connected server then validates the identity of the client.
