Prerequisites

1. Install caGrid v1.3 locally, http://cagrid.org/display/downloads/caGrid+1.3+Installation+Quick+Start
2. Obtain a grid credential (or Dorian User Account) for the grid trust fabric needed, e.g. Training Grid. (developers working locally should use the Training Grid) See http://cagrid.org/display/cagrid13tutorials/Create+User+Account for instructions.Request a Host Cert to be used locally, http://cagrid.org/display/knowledgebase/Request+a+Host+Certificate^{Image Removed}. You should specify your local machine's hostname. For example, locally I use Code Block steve-matyass-macbook-pro-2.local
3. Record your grid credential (aka Grid Identity) for later use. For example, mine is

   Code Block
   /O=caBIG/OU=caGrid/OU=Training/OU=Dorian/CN=matyass

4. Add your own Grid Identity to PO to authenticate.
5. Add your own Grid Identity to PA to authenticate.

1. Lauch GAARDS-UI and login using your CN (matyass) from your Grid Identity (e.g. /O=caBIG/OU=caGrid/OU=Training/OU=Dorian/CN=matyass)

   Code Block
   title Launch GAARDS-UI (ant security)
   steve-matyass-macbook-pro-2:cagrid smatyas$ pwd /Users/smatyas/dev/cagrid/caGrid

...

1. steve-matyass-macbook-pro-2:caGrid smatyas$ ant security ...

   1. Click Login button and specify the following:

      Code Block
      title Specify Login Credentials
      Credential Provider: Training Organization: Training Username: matyass Password: *********

2. Proceed to consuming PO or PA services as normal now

Consuming Unsecured Services

If you just want to call the services, you can use a tool like SoapUI to generate XML from the WSDLs listed below (which is what QA does). To get more involved, you can use the sample java code in coppa/code/po-grid/src/gov/nih/nci/coppa/services/entities /ServiceName/client/ServiceNameClient.java. There are similar clients for PA under coppa/code/pa-grid.
