    Federated (Single-Sign-On) Authentication in the Sentinet Developer Portal

    Federated authentication enables the Sentinet Developer Portal users to sign in with an external OpenID Connect or WS-Federation authentication provider such as Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), Azure Active Directory (AAD), Google, Okta, etc. More than one external Identity Provider can be used for the Developer Portal single-sign-on. This chapter describes how to integrate the Sentinet Developer Portal with external authentication providers.

    Note

    Federated Authentication is an optional feature in the Developer Portal. If it is not enabled, Developer Portal will only use traditional Username/Password based authentication.

    Diagram below shows interactions between user’s Web Browser application, Sentinet Developer Portal web application and Identity Provider web application.
