When all requirements have been met, you're now able to enable AAD login for the products you decided on (DC and/or MM)
Enabling AAD
To enable the AAD functionality, you need to do the following:
Go to your DC's web.config file and edit it - preferably with Notepad++.
In the <sectionGroup name="digiConfig"> tag, add the following:
<section name="azureActiveDirectory" type="DigiEyeZ.Framework.WebLibrary.Configuration.AzureActiveDirectorySection" />
Making it look like this
Configuration examples
DC API server only (MM)
Enabling the beneath configuration will enable only MM to use AAD. The DAM Center will still remain using the default non-AAD login.
Please be aware the the templateMemberId should be the user ID of the template user, you've noted down while verifying that you met the requirements (step 3: The ID of a user of which you want all your users to look like (AAD Template User)). In my case below its 30027.
<azureActiveDirectory> <server enabled="true" templateMemberId="30027" /> </azureActiveDirectory>
The web.config will look like the following
DC API server with single tenant client login (DC and MM)
The below configuration enabled both DC and MM to use AAD for logging in.
The "templateMemberId" is again the one you defined in the requirement section (requirement 3 - just as before).
The "clientId" is found in the Az
The "tenant"<azureActiveDirectory> <server enabled="true" templateMemberId="30027" /> <client enabled="true" clientId="33384545-4fe0-4b68-85d6-9edcb35c4690" tenant="mytenantid.onmicrosoft.com" /> </azureActiveDirectory>
Understanding "server" and "client"
The children of azureActiveDirectory, server and client can be a bit difficult to wrap one's head around - here's some explanation:
Server: Defines the user used for creating new AAD users.
Client: Defines that the corresponding site corresponding to the chosen client ID/application ID and tenant will use AAD for logging in. The client ID of the MM must not be input into the DC's web.config's azureActiveDirectory tag - instead the MM will have its own client ID defined within its own web.config.
