Change the authentication method for a user

Note:

This procedure does not apply for Oracle-hosted installations. User authentication is managed when creating the user in the identity management service.

You can change the authentication method for a user to Local, SSO (single sign-on), or LDAP.

Before you begin:

  • If you plan to change a user's authentication method to SSO and you work in a self-hosted environment, create the user in your single sign-on application.
  • If you plan to change a user's authentication method to LDAP, import the user.
  1. In the left navigation pane, click the Settings icon (Settings icon).
  2. In the Manage Users section, click Edit Users.
  3. Click the user's Row Action menu (Row Action menu icon), and then click Edit.
  4. From the Authentication drop-down list, select one of the following:
    • Local
    • SSO
    • LDAP
  5. Click Save.
