I apologize for my delayed acknowledgment, but thank you everyone for your responses. A solution hasn't been decided upon yet, but I may post details on implementation if it is unique to the ones already out there and previously mentioned.

Hello,
We have a central portal that users are logged into. I currently have the portal pulling a list of the users recent OTRS tickets and a link which directs them into OTRS. However, they have to log into OTRS using their username and password.
Is there an API function where I can obtain a token of some sort for a specific username and add the token to a URL which will allow me to redirect the user into OTRS while allowing them to bypass the login prompt?
Thanks,
Kris
