If you have multiple companies that need access to the Web Client and they each use a different method of authorization, you must set up a matching identity provider for each in Smart API Manager. You can then configure Server Manager so when they sign in to the Web Client, they can select their specific identity provider from a list for authentication.
To view multiple identity providers in a list:
-
In Server Manager Web Client Site Settings, clear any identity provider entered in the Identity Provider option.
Now when users sign in and enter a username and a password, the users can also choose the required identity provider from a list for authentication.
-
A user may be redirected to the identity provider’s sign in screen, where the sign in process can be automated. This happens when using the Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) identity provider.
-
The information provided here is related to the system administration of multiple identity providers when using Smart API Manager. If the identity providers are not configured correctly, your users will not be able to access the application.
