Selecting an Authentication Mode
OpenL Studio supports the following authentication modes:
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Single-User | Only one user can run OpenL Studio. No login is required. Suitable for development and local evaluation only. |
| Multi-User | Multiple users can run OpenL Studio using unique usernames. User credentials are managed directly in OpenL Studio. Suitable for teams without an external identity provider. |
| Active Directory / LDAP | Multiple users authenticate against a corporate Active Directory or LDAP server. User credentials are managed by the directory service. External users are created and synchronized from the directory at login. |
| SSO: SAML | Single Sign-On using the SAML 2.0 protocol. Works with identity providers such as Okta, Azure AD, and similar services. |
| SSO: OIDC (OAuth2) | Single Sign-On using the OAuth2 / OpenID Connect protocol. Supports providers such as Google, GitHub, and others. |
Note: CAS authentication is no longer supported starting with OpenL Tablets 6.0.
