Configuring single sign-on for Active Directory servers

You must enable single sign-on for an Active Directory (AD) server before you can allow users to use it.

1. Click Options and then click the Active Directory/LDAP category.

The Options - Active Directory/LDAP page opens.

2. Select the AD server to enable single sign-on for and click Edit.

If you need to add a new server connection, click Add Active Directory. See Adding Active Directory servers.

The Options - Edit Active Directory Server page opens.

3. Select a Single Sign-On option.

Disabled disables single sign-on for all LDAP users associated with the AD server. Users must manually log in to Helix ALM products.
Enabled enables single sign-on for all LDAP users associated with the AD server.
Required enables single sign-on for all LDAP users associated with the AD server and restrict them from logging in using a username and password. Single sign-on is automatically enabled for all users associated with the AD server.

If single sign-on is required, all users associated with the AD server must use the Helix ALM product versions and clients that support single sign-on. If the AD server is not available, users cannot access Helix ALM products.

4. Click Save to save the changes.

If you enabled single sign-on, you must also enable it for users. See Enabling single sign-on for users.
