Testing Social Identity Providers

In all cases, once configuration is complete, you should test the social identity provider. To do so, go through the steps in the following procedure:

  1. Navigate to the login screen for the End User UI, https://openidm.example.com:8443.

  2. Select the Register link (after the "Don't have an account?" question) on the login page.

  3. You should see a link to sign in with your selected social identity provider. Select that link.

    Note

    If you do not see a link to sign in with any social identity provider, you probably did not enable the option associated with Social Registration. To make sure, access the Admin UI, and select Configure > User Registration.

    Warning

    If you see a redirect URI error from a social identity provider, check the configuration for your web application in the social identity provider developer console. There may be a mistake in the redirect URI or redirect URL.

  4. Follow the prompts from your social identity provider to log in to your account.

    Note

    If there is a problem with the interface to the social identity provider, you might see a Register Your Account screen with information acquired from that provider.

  5. Because security questions are enabled by default, you must add at least one security question and answer to proceed. For more information, see "Configure Security Questions".

    When the Social ID registration process is complete, you are redirected to the End User UI at https://openidm.example.com:8443.

  6. You should now be able to use the sign in link for your social identity provider to log in to IDM.
