OAuth2 Authentication

The user types in the username and password on the WMS Cloud login page, whether the Web, Mobile App or Mobile RF device. The encrypted credentials are sent to the WMS Cloud Service. If the username has an associated “alternate username”, WMS Cloud will delegate the authentication to the external identity provider and validate against that service. If the authentication succeeds, the user is logged into the WMS.

OAuth2 backends that have been validated with WMS Cloud are Oracle IDCS and Azure AD.

If users WMS instance was activated via My Services Portal for OCWMS after February 2021, as part of the activation, users are automatically provisioned with OAuth2 Authentication enabled. It is enabled with the domain of the WMS administrator who activated the account.

Note: You can include additional domains.
