Authentications

Introduction​

The Authentications page allows administrators to register, configure, and manage multiple authentication providers used for signing in to the AI Command Center. This capability enables organizations to integrate multiple directories or identity providers and manage them independently.

Overview​

Using the Authentications page, you can:

  • Register and manage multiple authentication providers, including:
    • LDAP (Microsoft Active Directory or generic LDAP)
    • Azure Active Directory (OAuth / OpenID Connect)
  • Turn authentication providers on or off without losing their configuration
  • Configure and maintain separate synchronization schedules for users and groups for each provider
  • Manually trigger synchronization and view execution logs for each provider

Context menu​

Each registered authentication provider includes a context menu that lets you manage and monitor its configuration and synchronization behavior.

OptionsDescription
ViewOpens the configuration in read-only mode.
View LogDisplays the execution history for user and group synchronization.
EditOpens the configuration in edit mode.
DeleteRemoves the selected authentication provider configuration.
Disable/EnableDisables or enables the authentication provider without deleting its configuration.
Run Sync NowImmediately triggers user and group synchronization.

Supported authentication providers​

The AI Command Center supports the following authentication providers. Each provider can be registered, configured, and managed independently from the Authentications page:

Microsoft Active Directory (LDAP)​

Use this provider to integrate on-premises Microsoft Active Directory or generic LDAP directories. See the complete guide: Microsoft Active Directory (LDAP)

Azure Active Directory​

Use this provider to authenticate users via Azure Active Directory using OAuth/OpenID Connect. See the complete guide: Azure Active Directory

Registering an Authentication Provider​

To register a new authentication provider, click on the + Add Provider button on the Authentications page.

  • The system launches an Add Provider page:
    • The first screen displays all available authentication provider types.
    • Selecting a provider type opens the provider-specific configuration flow.

For Microsoft Active Directory (LDAP)​

  • You first provide basic information, including a name and description for the configuration.
  • You can turn the provider on or off during setup.
  • Each Active Directory configuration maintains its own user and group synchronization schedule, identified by the configuration name.

The AI Command Center uses this configuration information to correctly authenticate users and associate them with the appropriate authentication provider.

Best practices​

  • Schedule user and group synchronization during off-peak hours and regularly review synchronization logs.
  • Use read-only credentials for authentication providers whenever possible to reduce security risks.
  • Assign clear, descriptive names to authentication provider configurations to simplify monitoring and troubleshooting.
  • Disable unused providers instead of deleting them to preserve configuration history
