Single Sign-on from Salesforce to application running inside tab

Hello,

I have an application I would like to run inside of a custom tab inside Salesforce. I would like to use single sign-on so that if a user logs into Salesforce and navigates to this tab they will be logged into my application. All the documentation I have found so far is driven towards logging into Salesforce once the user logs into my application, but I would like the reverse of this.

Any help in guiding me to the appropriate documentation is much appreciated.

Thanks!

There's something on the wiki that details this somewhere, but all you need to do is use the merge fields for api session and api server url. Then you can use this info to verify that the user was logged into salesforce.com. You can just add these merge field values to the URL for your webtab.
