Single Sign-On (SSO)
General
Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication method that allows users to access multiple applications or systems with just one set of credentials (e.g. username and password). Instead of having to log in separately for each application, the user authenticates once and this authentication is accepted across all connected systems.
COGLAS uses the Single Sign-On (SSO) service to optimise the authentication of the Web WMS. With this solution, users do not have to log in again each time they access the Web WMS. This improves the user experience and increases security at the same time, as the login process is centralised and protected by standardised authentication procedures.

Parameters
All parameters are mandatory fields and are required.
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Name | Name of the connection. Currently has no meaning and is only required in the Web.config. |
ClientCode | Warehouse for which an SSO configuration is to be used. |
ClientId | Application ID in Microsoft Entra ID, identifies an application. Attention: Has nothing to do with the ID of COGLAS clients. |
AuthorityUrl | Url of the well-known endpoint. Contains the tenant ID for Microsoft Entra ID. e.g. 9e6f520d-b580-4409-871b-b4840fb9f323. |
ClientSecret | Is configured for a Microsoft Entra ID application. |
To fill these parameters, it is necessary to set up the identity provider and an added application in advance. Your COGLAS contact person is responsible for setting up the SSO.
Azure Konfiguration
In order to use Single Sign-On (SSO), prior configuration in a supported identity provider, e.g. Microsoft Entra ID, is required. Administrative access to this is required to start this configuration. The first login with your administrative access takes place via the Microsoft Azure Portal.
