OpenID Integration

OpenID Connect (OIDC) is an open standard and decentralized authentication protocol. The OpenID module allows users to create accounts by selecting an OpenID identity provider and then use those accounts to sign on to any website that accepts OpenID authentication.

Version 8 Endpoints

Prerequisites:

• Preexisting OpenID Account
• Access to an OpenID API

Basic Configuration

1. Navigate to System > Settings and click OpenID Settings. Select the Enabled checkbox on the Edit Open Id Settings window and click ADD under Identity Providers.
   
2. Enter an appropriate name in the IdP Name field. The Client ID, Client Secret, and Discovery URL (Authority) fields can be obtained from an Identity Provider. The Discovery URL (Authority) usually ends with ".well-known/openid-configuration". After configuring all the appropriate fields, click OK.
   Be sure the information being inputted is correct. Many Identity Providers have an allowed list of redirect URIs. It may be necessary to add "http:///decisions/Login.aspx " to this list. The required information may change between different Identity Providers.
   
3. Click the dropdown list under Primary Identity Provider and select the Identity Provider created. Click SAVE.
   When debug logging is enabled, requests and responses will be located at C:/Program Files/Decisions/Decisions Server/Logs/OpenID. 

   

4. In the File Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Decisions\Decisions Server and open Settings.xml. 
   
5. Locate <EnableSingleSignOn> and set the value to true. 
6. Restart the Decisions Service service or IIS App Pool. If there is an active session, it might be logged in with a non-OpenID account. Log out or start a new session to be redirected to the identity provider. Once the identity provider has accepted the credentials, it will redirect to Decisions to log in with the OpenID account.
