Android Question Web Client/Web Page decode

[iCAB]

Hi All

We have the following requirement:

• Invoke a login web page inside a web client. The page has the following controls:
  • User Name
  • Password
  • Login Button
• After a successful login, the page supposed to return some sort of token, that we must save inside the app for further communication with the corresponding web service.

Please note that the app is not allowed to prompt the user for the password. The password must be keyed in directly at the web page.

I am wondering if the app can detect the login action/response and extract the returned token (provided that the user logged in successfully).

Basically the process is similar to Oauth

Thanks in advance

Should be possible to extract it from an embedded WebView. The actual details depend on the way the token is returned from the server.
