I have developed a Reporting Module which will fetch data from application services but will generate PDF or EXCEL on this module.
My idea is to have a separate installation of the entire application which will connect to a replicated database and I should be able to call the reporting services from this application directly from the UI. This way my Reporting will be completely separated from the application.
My problem is how to authenticate. The scenario is I login to my application which will have a button say "Generate Huge Report". This button will wire up to call the reporting service from a separate web API instance. I don't know will I authenticate the request here as it's a separate URL .
Any ideas?

Hi,
It seems like you need to implement same authentication mechanism exists in AspNet Zero to your seperate module as well.

Would you feel comfortable explaining to me how your reporting module works, as I want to build something like this, but dont know where to start.
