Automatic Login from CyberArk to HCL Notes via Web Interface API

Currently, CyberArk stores the HCL Notes ID passwords, and users manually retrieve the credentials before logging in to Notes. The proposed idea is to integrate CyberArk with Lotus Notes through a Web Interface API to enable automatic and secure authentication.

This solution is useful because it eliminates manual password retrieval, reduces login time, minimizes password exposure risks, and improves overall security compliance and user productivity. Employees, application users, and support teams who regularly access Lotus Notes will benefit from a faster, seamless, and hassle-free login experience.

The solution would work by allowing Lotus Notes to securely communicate with CyberArk through the API during the login process. CyberArk would validate the request, automatically provide the required credentials in the background, and authenticate the user without exposing or manually handling passwords.

    • For Notes.IDs there is an extension manager API available which CyberArk could use.

    • For web based authentication I would suggest the OIDC flow.

    IMHO this is clearly a feature request to CyberArk and not Notes.
    If they need help they could contact a HCL business partner like myself.

    I can point them to the right functionality on community support level or help them to implement it cleanly on consulting level.

    Clearly this integration would need to come from their end. This would be a small Extension Manger with their custom logic that hooks up with their API.
