If so is their any special configuration required?

Question
Can Forms Authenticated Participant Licenses use the Mobile App to access Forms?
Answer
I believe that they can. As you can tell the Mobile App not to authenticate to a repository and only Forms. I have not tested it, but in theory it should work.
Building off Blake's,
If you have a Laserfiche Mobile App Server, you just need to configure your Configuration page with your Forms server. Then on the app, connect to your Laserfiche Mobile App Server, and then sign into the Forms server only.
You won't be able to sign into your repository with those Forms authentication participants, but as long as you only log into your Forms server, then it should work. One good way to test it, is on your mobile device, try to log in via the mobile browser. and if it works there, then it should work via the Mobile App too, granted as mentioned, you configured everything from the Laserfiche Mobile App Server Configuration page.
Good to know! Thanks.
When on Mobile sign in page, just set the repository to None and select Forms server only. In that way you will only sign in Forms with the authenticated participant.

I doubt they can, since authentication occurs through Laserfiche Server, which doesn't know about Forms Authenticated Participants (since those are configured on the Forms Server). I hope I'm wrong though. Our largest client has a lot of authenticated participants and they really need offline forms. It would suck to have to tell them they can't use it - it's the single most important reason they want to upgrade to version 10.
Thanks for the updates. I figured that would be the case but had a customer having issues. Likely something they are doing. Just wanted to confirm for sure if it was even possible.
It still doesn't like my credentials. Please see attached. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Since your Forms has been configured to use Laserfiche Directory Server, you must check the Single Sign-On option besides the Forms Server in Mobile configuration. Please see point 3 under Laserfiche Forms Server section in https://www.laserfiche.com/support/webhelp/laserfichemobile/10/en-us/lfmobile/lfmobileadmin.htm#Installation_and_Configuration/Configuration_Page_Connection.htm%3FTocPath%3DConfiguration%2520Page%7CConnection%7C_____0
