# RequireResourceID

The ID of an OpenText Directory Services (OTDS) resource that the user must have access to. Community authenticates a user only if they have access to the resource that you specify. You can use this parameter to set a resource ID for all users, rather than setting the ResourceID action parameter for each action.

By default, when you authenticate a user against an OTDS repository, you must set the ResourceID action parameter on the UserRead or Security action. Set `RequireResourceID` to a required resource ID to use this for all users. In this case, Community ignores the ResourceID action parameter.

You can also set `RequireResourceID` to `False` to turn off resource ID checking for the OTDS repository. In this case, Community checks only that the JWT (JSON Web Token) that you provide in the Password parameter is valid for the specified user.
