Using Domain Account Login

Workflow Manager 6.5 / AdminStudio Enterprise Server 11.5

You may want to use your usual domain credentials to login to Workflow Manager.

Setting Up Workflow Manager to Use Domain Credentials

To set up Workflow Manager to use domain credentials, perform the following steps:

To set up Workflow Manager to use domain credentials:

1. Set up a Windows Active Directory or Novell eDirectory directory service connection. See Creating a New Directory Service Connection for more information.
2. On your Workflow Manager server, open IIS Manager and enable the Anonymous Authentication option. This specifies that Workflow Manager will be responsible for authenticating login attempts. Refer to Setting the Anonymous Authentication Option in IIS Manager for further details.
3. Import relevant accounts into Workflow Manager from your directory service. See Importing Directory Services Accounts and Groups for more information.

Logging in Using Your Domain Account Login

If your account has been imported from a directory service, or belongs to an imported group, you may then enter your usual domain account name and password on the Workflow Manager / AdminStudio Enterprise Server login page. Workflow Manager will connect to the relevant directory service, and pass through the supplied account name and password so that it can authenticate you.

Note: When entering your account name, it is not necessary to specify the directory service domain name.
