Add an OpenID Connect provider to OpenManage Enterprise

Adding, enabling, and registering an OpenID Connect provider (Keycloak or PingFederate) allows for an authorized client login to OpenManage Enterprise. This generates a Client ID.

1. Click Add to activate the Add New OpenID Connect Provider page.
2. Fill the following information in the respective fields:
   1. Name - Name for the OIDC client.
   2. Discovery URI - Uniform Resource Identifier of the OIDC provider
   3. Authentication type - Choose from one of the following methods the access token must use to access the appliance:
      1. Initial Access Token - Provide the Initial access token
      2. Username and Password - Provide the username and password
   4. (Optional) Certificate Validation check box - You can select the check box and upload the OIDC provider's certificate by clicking Browse and locating the certificate or by dragging and dropping the certificate in the 'broken line' box.
   5. (Optional) Test connection - Click Test URI and SSL Connection to test the connection with the OpenID Connect provider.
      NOTE Test connection does not depend on the username and password or the initial access token details, as it only checks for the validity of the Discovery URI provided.
   6. (Optional) Enabled check box - You can select the check box to allow the authorized client access tokens to login to the appliance.
3. Click Finish.
