At site level, the device name prefix is defined in the site's own details page - "Properties" tab. |

Activated Methods |
Maintain or change the currently active user authentication methods.
The "Internal System" option (= user authentication managed by MCL-Mobility Platform) CANNOT be unchecked. This user authentication method must always be active. It is ONLY possible to activate/deactivate the "External System..." option.
Be aware that checking the "External System (OpenID Connect)" option requires you to define specific settings to integrate the external user authentication provider into your MCL-Mobility Platform account. •The setup within the used external provider must include specific elements. See External System User Authentication Method. •The necessary user profiles must be available within the "User Profiles" sub-module so they can be mapped/connected to the external user profiles. You can use the link "User Profiles" to open the "User Management" page and create and/or edit user profiles. See User Profiles. •You must define the external provider being used and map the intended external entities (ex: user roles with an alias) to the internal entities (= user profiles). Follow the "OpenID Connect Settings" link to open the corresponding page and define your setup. See To Edit the OpenID Connect Settings.
|
Default Method |
Maintain or change the current default authentication method.
Internal System - If this option is checked, user authentication is managed internally, by MCL-Mobility Platform. The login can be executed via the account URL (https://<account number>.mcl4e.com/) OR the internal account URL (https://<account number>.mcl4e.com/login) in the account's login page. The user will have to enter the credentials that were set within the account. All account access links will redirect to the internal login page (ex: the account access link in the logout page).
External System... - If this option is checked, user authentication is managed by an external provider. The user can access the account via the account URL (https://<account number>.mcl4e.com/) OR the external system URL (attached to the "External System..." option in the "Activated Methods" section) The user will log in to an external login page where he will enter the credentials generated/provided by the external provider. |
If, for some reason, you opt for a hybrid approach (= activated "External System" + "Internal System" set as default method), make sure the intended users receive the required URLs/credentials and know which ones to use:
•The account URL and/or the internal account URL (and other access links such as the link in the logout page) lead to the MCL-Mobility Platform login page. The user must enter the credentials defined within the MCL-Mobility Platform account.
•The external system URL (available in the "Activated Methods" section) opens the external login page and the user must enter the credentials provided by the external provider.
4. Once you have edited the required tabs/fields, click to save those modifications. The page will be back to view mode.
To Edit the OpenID Connect Settings
The link available in the "User Authentication" tab - "OpenID Connect Settings" - opens the page that allows you to define the connection between your MCL-Mobility Platform account and the external user authentication provider and to map external user roles to the user profiles/internal roles created in the account.
Follow the step-by-step below to integrate the external provider onto your MCL-Mobility Platform account.
Step-by-step

3. Fill in/edit the fields in the "Properties" panel. The fields marked with an asterisk are mandatory, meaning, they must always contain information.

Maintain or edit the client ID. This string (generated/provided by the external user authentication provider) is used by your MCL-Mobility Platform account (along with the Client Secret) to connect to the OpenID Connect provider. |
Client Secret* |
Maintain or edit the client secret. This string (generated/provided by the external user authentication provider) is used by your MCL-Mobility Platform account (along with the Client ID) to connect to the OpenID Connect provider. |
Issuer URI* |
Maintain or edit the issuer's URI. The URI of the OpenID Connect provider (= endpoint used by MCL-Mobility Platform to connect to the external user authentication provider). |
Extra scope |
Maintain or edit any added scopes. This field is optional. It is used by MCL-Mobility Platform to ask for extra information associated to a different scope.
If you add or edit a scope, make sure that that scope matches an existing one in the external user authentication provider. The entered scopes must be separated by comas. |
4. Proceed to the "User Profile Mapping" panel and add/edit the available fields as necessary. Fields marked with an asterisk are mandatory/must contain information.
Role Alias Claim Name* |
Maintain or edit the name of the role alias claim. This is the name of the claim with user role info that is contained in the ID Token sent by the external user authentication provider to your MCL-Mobility Platform account. Ex: "custom:MPE_ROLE". |
Alias*/User Profile* columns |
This section displays the external user role aliases and the mapped internal user profiles. If required, you can edit an existing alias (A) or user profile (B), add another alias and corresponding user profile (C), duplicate (D) or delete them (F).
