AD FS Server Information Panel

  1. Enter a unique Server Name for the ADFS server.

  2. Enter the AD FS URL of the ADFS server.

Note

The application provides the AD FS Endpoint URL automatically, which you must add while configuring LogPoint in the ADFS server.

  1. Enter an Issuer. It is an identifier used in the Relying Party Trust of the ADFS server.

  2. Provide the AD FS Certificate. It is the signed certificate generated while setting up the ADFS server.

  3. Enter the Response Username Field. It is used to extract username from the ADFS response.

  4. Enter the Response Role Field. It is used to extract role from the ADFS response.

Note

The ADFS server predefines the Response Username Field and the Response Role Field.

  1. Click Save.

ADFS Role Mapping Added

Note

  • Mapping roles in the ADFS Authentication application is mandatory.

  • The ADFS role to LogPoint user group mapping is one-to-one, which means you can map an ADFS role to a single LogPoint user group only.
