Workcloud Communication
supports OAuth2 authentication using the Okta identity provider. Using OAuth2, multiple users can share a single device. This is referred to as the Shared Device Model.
When you install a
Workcloud Communication
solution with AD/ADFS services, User Authentication, User Provisioning, and Attribute Transformations are possible using LDAP services. The Okta integration only supports User Authentication. User Provisioning and Attribute Transformations are supported indirectly by using the Flat File Import functionality provided by
Workcloud Communication
.
The Okta integration uses the OpenID Connect (OIDC) protocol, which requires the Authentication Connection Service (ACS). ACS enables
Workcloud Communication
to authenticate with Okta using OIDC.
This document describes the Okta and ACS configuration required to support user authentication, and how this affects the configuration of
PTT Pro for Android
and
Workcloud Communication Profile Manager
.
