1.4 Connectors for Basic Single Sign-On

CloudAccess provides many connectors for Basic Single Sign-on (Basic SSO). They allow users to access web services that use forms-based authentication and require that the user’s password be sent at login. Examples include social media sites such as Evernote, LinkedIn, and Facebook. Basic SSO connectors work with the Basic SSO extension for supported browsers running on the user’s computer.

CloudAccess supports using multiple connectors for Basic SSO. Each instance points to a different destination website. You can use these connectors if you have a CloudAccess license. Users have individual accounts with the destination services.

NetIQ provides connectors for Basic SSO in the NetIQ Application Catalog. You can browse or search the catalog for appropriate connectors to import to your appliance. You can access the catalog from the Applications palette in the administration console.

You can also create custom connectors for Basic SSO by using the NetIQ Access Connector Toolkit. For more information, see Creating Custom Connectors. After you create a custom connector, you must import it to CloudAccess to make it available in the Applications palette in the CloudAccess administration console.
