Enrollment sites

You only have access to the functionality described in this information if you are entitled to use Flexera One SaaS Management, and have the System administrator role, or a custom role which has the related permissions included in this default role, assigned to you in Roles in Flexera One SaaS Management Settings.

An enrollment site is a logical unit within a system where you enroll client applications, such as Extenders, and keys required to secure the communication for applications that connect to Flexera cloud services.

Overview

An enrollment site is used during the configuration of client applications, for example, an Extender, to group similar client applications together, and to configure a certificate to secure communication. You can add several enrollment sites to group client applications with their certificates for better organization, and so that you can revoke a group of client applications by removing the relevant enrollment site if or when necessary.

A client application that authenticates using client credentials has its identity tied to the enrollment site. The identity is included in the json web token sent with all requests to the platform. The identity provider cryptographically guarantees that a client application sending data to the platform for a specific enrollment site is entitled to do so. This data is normalized by the gateway for Flexera cloud services.
