login (Username, Password)

This method is provided for backward compatibility, where access authentication is performed on the username and password supplied. A SID (session ID) is returned only if the access is authenticated. All subsequent web services calls need to include this SID. Default access policy is then applied to all subsequent web services accesses labeled with the SID.

Username and password are required fields that require plain text when you define them.
