SAML SP - Sync Directory Password

SAML SP - Sync Directory Password

Login script to prompt for directory password

Since the user does not login into Unified Workspace with a password, we cannot capture the password to use in the @@password@@ variable.  If you would like to use the Active Directory password for other Unified Workspace features (File Services, Remote Desktop, Web Applications), you'll need to implement the following login script to prompt the user.  It will verify the password is correct with Active Directory and automatically prompt the user if the currently stored password is not valid anymore.

To enable this feature, follow the steps below:
1.    As the Unified Workspace Administrator, open the webAdmin tool
2.    Expand the CUSTOMIZATION-CENTER folder
3.    Select the profile you are using (e.g. SecureCloudAccess-Profile)
4.    Click on LOGIN SCRIPTS
5.    Enter the following into scripts
IF NOT syncedUserPasswordCorrect THEN
     executeURL( "/apps/selfService/updateSyncedUserPassword.jsp" )
END
6.    Click SAVE button
 
Value will be stored in the "SW-syncedUserPwd" lockbox value in Password Manager.  You can still use the @@password@@ variable to call this value.


Troubleshooting:
For troubleshooting issues, turn on the following Logging DEBUG on the Relay server(s).
