User Login Options by Authentication Method and Server Authentication Scope

This section describes whether users can log in on VOSS Automate (Y or N), based on:

  1. User’s authentication method (Auth Method), either Local, LDAP, SSO, or Automatic

  2. User’s type, either all users, or LDAP synced

  3. Server’s authentication scope, either of the following:

    • Current and below

    • Current only

Note

If an IDP server is in scope and authentication method is set to LDAP, authentication is attempted against LDAP on login.

If the authentication method is set to Automatic, IDP(SSO) authentication takes precedence.
