  • On the toolbar at the top of the screen, click More  , and then click Authentication.
Wskazówka

To ensure the security of client connections to the Admin Page, we strongly recommended to enable SSL communication in the web client if you plan on editing the authentication configuration. Install ADONIS according to the Installation Manual and configure SSL/TLS support on Tomcat.

Uwaga

To edit these settings, you need experience with JSON. If you need help, contact your ADONIS consultant.

The following functionalities are available:

SAML Settings

Modify the global basic configuration parameters for SAML connectors.

Security Settings

Adapt the brute force protection settings.

Wskazówka

For details on how to configure the parameters please refer to section "Configure Brute Force Protection Settings" in the Installation Manual.

Configure Self-Service Password Reset

Self-service password reset lets ADONIS users reset their own passwords without having to contact their ADONIS administrator each time. They can simply click the "Forgot Password?" link on the login page, and will then receive an email with a link to reset their password.

Availability

This functionality is available if the mail component is configured and the Standard connector is used (= standard login page where the user can enter his or her username and password).

Wskazówka

For details on how to configure the mail component please refer to the section Mail.

The following users CANNOT reset their password themselves:

  • ADONIS Administrators (users with global administrator rights)

  • Technical users

  • Users from an external user management system

  • Users without email address

Configuration

On the Admin Page, you can enable/disable the self-service password reset and configure how long a password reset link is valid. By default, this feature is enabled and the expiry time of the link is 30 minutes.

To configure the password reset properties:

  • On the Authentication page, edit the Standard Login connector and save the changes afterwards.

Client Data

When you add a new client or edit an exisiting client on the OAuth 2.0 page, the Client Data form appears. You can enter and edit the following data:

  • Type: Select the client type. Confidential clients are e.g. centralized, server based applications, which are capable of securely storing client secrets. Public clients are e.g. purely client based applications and native apps which are not capable of securely storing client secrets.

  • ID: The ID of the client system. Must be unique among the clients, should be kept simple as special characters need to be URL encoded.

  • Name: The name of the client application. Will be shown on the user interface.

  • Redirect URI: The URL of a redirect endpoint inside the client application which will be called by the authorization server when issuing an authorization code.

Wskazówka

The Redirect URI is unnecessary when using the Client Credentials Flow, however the Client Data form requires this field to be filled (mandatory for Authorization Code Flow).

  • Logo: Select a logo to represent the client application (must be uploaded first on the OAuth 2.0 page). Will be shown on the user interface.

  • Access Token Validity (Seconds): The time in seconds how long an access token is valid until it expires. Default: 1800s = 30 minutes.

  • Refresh Token Validity (Seconds): The time in seconds how long an refresh token is valid until it expires. Default: 1209600s = 14 days.

  • Secret: The secret to use for client authentication. You can click Generate to generate a new secret or manually specify one.

Click Save after completing the Client Data form, and then click Save changes to save the OAuth 2.0 page.

Licence Overview

This page shows you at a glance the total number of available licences as well as the number of licences currently in use. You can also find out quickly about all active ADONIS users including the time of login and the time of the last action. To open the Licence Overview page:

  • On the toolbar at the top of the screen, click More  , and then click Licence Overview.
Wskazówka

If you have questions about the different types of licenses or the difference between concurrent users and named users, please refer to the sections Product Licences vs. Scenario Licences and Named Users vs. Concurrent Users.

Wskazówka

You can control whether actual login names are shown in this widget by setting the parameter ADOXX_WEB_TRACK_LOGINS in the file adoxx_web_conf.js to true/false. This file can be found in the folder <ADONIS installation>\conf”.

Server

This page allows you to perform various maintenance tasks. To open the Server page:

  • On the toolbar at the top of the screen, click More  , and then click Server.

The following functionalities are available:

  • Restart Environment

    Restart the application server and the web application. All users will be logged out. As soon as the application server is up and running again, and the web application is completely initialised, login is possible again.

  • Restart Web Application

    Restart the web application. All web client users will be logged out. As soon as the web client is completely initialised, login is possible again.

  • Re-intialise search index

    Reinitialize the search index if you if you are encountering problems with the search function in ADONIS. Depending on the number of models and objects in the database this process may take a few minutes.

  • Start LDAP synchronisation

    Start the synchronization of users with an LDAP-compliant directory service according to the configuration specified on the Admin Page. The synchronization is triggered for all configured domains. During the synchronization, a progress bar provides information on the current status. After the synchronization, all newly synchronized users and any error codes are displayed for each domain.

    Wskazówka

    For questions about the necessary steps to enable synchronization, please refer to the Installation Manual.

  • Clear LDAP Cache

    When synchronization of users with an LDAP-compliant directory service is enabled and the option recursiveNodeLookup is enabled for one or more LDAP properties, ADONIS is caching results to speed up performance. To detect changes in the directory structure, this cache is automatically cleared when the web application is restarted, when you start LDAP synchronization here on the Admin Page, or when a periodic synchronization of users with LDAP is triggered.

    Use this button to clear the LDAP cache if recursiveNodeLookup is enabled, there are changes in the directory structure, and you want to make sure that users that log in to the ADONIS web client for the first time will be assigned correctly to system roles, user groups and repositories.

Support > Information

This page allows you to download support packages in different sizes. A support package contains log files of the application server, log files of the web server including the web application as well as configuration files within an encrypted Zip archive. To open the Information page:
