OpenID Connect Authentication Proxy
Cognos® Analytics provides another provider type, 'OpenID Connect Authentication Proxy' in Cognos Configuration.
The OpenID Connect Authentication Proxy menu offers the option to have Trusted Signon Provider (TSP) for OpenID connect. Similar to OpenID Connect entries, it shows a list of Identity Providers that are currently supported.
Additional configuration setting entries under Advanced Properties are visible. You must configure the claim you want passed to the real provider as well as the namespace ID of the real provider.
- Identity claim name: Specifies the name of the claim that will be provided to the target namespace (for example. John Doe)
- Trusted environment name: Specifies the environment variable name that will be used to transfer the claim to the target namespace (for example. REMOTE_USER)
- Redirect namespace ID: Specifies the namespace ID that will be invoked with the claim obtained from the OpenID identity provider (for example. LDAP)
