Hi Nina, Andreas, In the A&A workflow a token has a certain life time after which it becomes invalid. So if someone starts a task and provides a token for dataset access and upload - the access will work as it is done immediately and the token is valid, however the upload will fail as by that time the token would become invalid (as the task takes a long time). One way would be store the user credentials on the server (Maxtox) which I think is not the correct thing to do. The credentials should exists only in one secure place. Another solution would be to have configurable lifetime for a token - but that would mean estimating the task completion time (which may be difficult if not impossible to do). A third method would be to store the result dataset locally, but that would compromise the data confidentiality in case the Maxtox server is compromised. What is the solution to this problem ? All in all I am finding it difficult to align the A&A requirements with our use case. Any help is appreciated ... Regards Surajit
