Bonita Authentication

Hi,

Currently we are using Jaas configuration for authentication in the Bonita Portal, users come from active directory and is working properly.

Is there any way to authenticate users that are created directly from the portal so they can access the processes?

Regards,

Victor

Hi,

Not sure to understand the question. To interact with the processes, users have to exist in the Portal organization. So even if you delegate the authentication to Active Directory, the users still have to exist to the organization to create a session in the Portal and interact with the processes.

Cheers

Hi, thanks for your answer.

The users that we have inside the portal are the ones that have been created normally in the synchronization with the active directory, and these users can log in correctly within the portal.

However, we have the case where the client needs that other users can access the processes, but without being inside the active directory. For this the available option is to create them directly from the portal, the problem is that these created users fail at the moment of initiating the session, since only valid in the authentication those that are within the active directory.

The question is how it would be done so that these users created directly from the portal can access the portal later.

I think the point of the Jaas configuration for authentication in the Bonita Portal is that users MUST exist in Active Directory.

To enable both sources i.e. Active Directory and Bonitasoft authentication sort of defeats the objective of using the JAAS Authentication.

You would have to reconfigure/rewrite the Authentication mechanism to allow this to occur.

That being said, you say you've defined the users in Bonitasoft Portal, but have you assigned them a Profile? Just checking :)
