Logging in to Assets Server from Assets for InDesign Server

When Assets for InDesign is used in InDesign Server, the Assets Server credentials need to be passed as arguments in the start-up command of InDesign Server as part of the log in process.

This should look as follows:

InDesignServer -port <port_number> -elvisserver "<elvis_server_url" -elvisusername "<elvis_username>" -elvispassword "<elvis_password>"

A sample start-up command is:

InDesignServer -port 18383 -elvisserver "http://elvis.woodwing.net" -elvisusername "username" -elvispassword "password"

To see if the log in to Assets was successful, verify the console.
