The EmpowerID SSO Connector framework allows you to configure an Identity Provider connection for Windows Authentication to allow your users the ability to log in to EmpowerID using their Windows credentials.

Info
To log in to EmpowerID using Windows credentials, users must have user accounts either in the domain protected by EmpowerID or in a domain trusted by that domain.

Test the SSO connection

On the navbar, expand IT Shop and click Workflows.
On the Workflows page, click Recycle EmpowerID App Pools.
Log out of the EmpowerID Web interface and navigate your browser to the domain name you configured for Windows auth.
When prompted, enter your Windows credentials and then click OK.

Info
If you chose to give users accessing your portal the ability to log in using their EmpowerID accounts (or any other account) and you did not create an IP Address Range, they will be directed to the login page, where they could select a different login option. In this article, Windows Auth is the only login option for the portal, so users will be prompted for their Windows credentials.

Depending on your organizational policy for browser settings, users may or may not be prompted for credentials after their first login.
