What does the parameter 'singleSignOnOption' do?

Troubleshooting


Problem

Customer is wanting to implement 'single sign on' (SSO). Instructions refer to the parameter 'singleSignOnOption'. What does this parameter do, and what value should they configure?

Symptom

Inside 'Cognos Configuration', inside the Active Directory namespace, there is a button 'Advanced Properties':

What settings should the customer put inside here (relating to singleSignOnOption) ?

  • For example:

[{"Product":{"code":"SS9S6B","label":"IBM Cognos Controller"},"Business Unit":{"code":"BU048","label":"IBM Software"},"Component":"Controller","Platform":[{"code":"PF033","label":"Windows"}],"Version":"10.1;10.1.1;10.2.0;10.2.1;8.3;8.4;8.5;8.5.1","Edition":"","Line of Business":{"code":"LOB76","label":"Data Platform"}},{"Product":{"code":"SSEP7J","label":"Cognos Business Intelligence"},"Business Unit":{"code":"BU048","label":"IBM Software"},"Component":"Install and Config","Platform":[{"code":"PF033","label":"Windows"}],"Version":"10.2;10.1.1;10.1","Edition":"","Line of Business":{"code":"LOB76","label":"Data Platform"}},{"Product":{"code":"SSMRTZ","label":"IBM Cognos Controller on Cloud"},"Business Unit":{"code":"BU048","label":"IBM Software"},"Component":" ","Platform":[{"code":"","label":""}],"Version":"","Edition":"","Line of Business":{"code":"LOB76","label":"Data Platform"}},{"Product":{"code":"SS6G84","label":"IBM Cognos Analytics on Cloud"},"Business Unit":{"code":"BU048","label":"IBM Software"},"Component":" ","Platform":[{"code":"","label":""}],"Version":"","Edition":"","Line of Business":{"code":"LOB76","label":"Data Platform"}}]
