Configure external authentication providers

Navigate to /RoleManager URL then click the Authentication Providers menu.

RoleManager can integration to any external provider that supports:

• OpenID Connect (oidc);
• OAuth;
• ADFS;
• SAML2.

Prerequisites

• Complete application registration in the respective authentication provider, e.g. configure redirect_URL, rely_party;
• Request credentials for connecting to the authentication provider, e.g. client_id, client_secret;
• Setup claims mapping at the authentication provider if required.

Adding an authentication provider

1. Click the Create New button,
   • Select the provider type from the dropdown; Select the "Other" type for source system that is only required to automatically map users;
   • Enter the name and display name of the provider. The name has to be unique and starts with a letter without space, e.g. Azure, then click the Next button;
2. Enter the configuration JSON applicable for the authentication provider. See below list for the applicable provider.
3. Select the applicable status:
   • Is Interactive - RoleManager displays a button for each interactive provider on the log in page so the user can use the external account to log in;
   • Is Default - RoleManager automatically redirects the user to the default authentication provider's login page, i.e. the user does not need to select which provider to log on.
