Federated Login#
The Admin UI can be configured to enable federated login, allowing administrators to authenticate using external or internal identity providers. By default, administrators use local accounts created directly in the Curity Identity Server, but federated login provides two additional options:
- External OpenID Connect Provider - The Admin UI performs an OIDC flow directly to an external provider
- Internal OpenID Connect Provider - The Admin UI performs an OIDC flow to one of the Curity Identity Server’s Token Service Profiles, giving the most control over the login flow
Federated login can be configured with multi-factor authentication and allows managing company accounts in one place. Local account login can be disabled once federated login is configured. For detailed setup instructions, see the Federated Login to the Admin UI.
