Configuring host authentication settings
As a system administrator, you can choose the authentication and related default security settings for your entire installation. These settings are inherited by all organizations as default.
This article walks you through the steps for configuring global authentication and security settings. If you want to configure organization-level settings, i.e., settings that apply to one organization, refer to Organization-level authentication settings.
The platform allows you to configure an external identity provider to control how your users sign in. Settings here apply to all organizations.
The following table provides an overview of the different host-level external providers available:
External Provider Integration |
Authentication |
Directory Search |
Administrators Provisioning |
---|---|---|---|
|
Administrators can use SSO with Windows Authentication using the Kerberos protocol |
Administrators can search for users from the Active Directory |
For a user to be able to login, either the user or a group that the user is a member of should already be added to the UiPath platform. Active Directory users and groups are available in the UiPath platform through directory search. |

Administrators can use SSO with Azure AD using the OpenID Connect protocol |

Users must be manually provisioned into the UiPath organization with an email address matching their Azure AD account. |

Users must be manually provisioned into the UiPath organization with an email address matching their Google account. |
