CRM.Logon("<user name>", "<password>");

Allows you to start using the Sage CRM object under a specified user account. Place this code in an external JavaScript page. You can copy and paste your encrypted password from the system database. It is a good practice to create a dedicated user account for external access to the system with limited access rights.
