Form Authenticated User license checkbox in Rio

Forms Administration Directory Server
Updated March 3, 2016
asked on March 3, 2016

We've just upgraded our license to include "Forms Authenticated Users", and after reading and testing I'm still left with a some questions.

 

In the LFDS a user can be assigned a "Participant License", but how does that actually get used?

The users cannot log into forms with it and it consumes a Participant license. I can allocate licenses to a forms instance, and create participants from the forms admin interface who can then log into forms and that's fine, but what's the reason to allocate a participant license in the Directory Service if that doesn't allow users to log in to forms?

 

 

Below I've included a a screenshot of the checkbox I'm talking about. It's the right-hand panel in the LFDS when you select a user.

License assigned to users within LFDS can be used if Forms uses LFDS for authentication, which is a new feature supported in Laserfiche 10.

If you upgrade from Forms 9.2.1, the option to switch to LFDS for authentication is hidden as we continue to improve the migration process, but it can be un-hidden using a SQL query.

If you wish to use Forms authenticated participants, but do not wish to use LFDS for authentication, you can allocate your authenticated participant licenses to your Forms instance, and manage your participants within Forms itself.
