Getting Started - Web Dashboard

Follow the steps below to get started with Syndeia Cloud Web Dashboard.

(1) After Syndeia Cloud is installed, you can access the Syndeia Web Dashboard from a web browser using the Syndeia Cloud URL provided by your Syndeia administrator, e.g. https://syndeia.myOrg.com:9443. This should open the Syndeia Web Dashboard Landing Page, as shown in Figure 1 below. The Syndeia Cloud Landing Page shows the different sign in options.

(2) Syndeia Cloud provides three different sign in options, as shown in the figure below.

• Local - Use this option if your account is created locally / natively in Syndeia Cloud. Provide your username and password and click on the Sign In button.

• LDAP - Use this option if your Syndeia Cloud installation is configured with your organization’s LDAP server. Provide your LDAP username and password and click on the Sign In button.

• Single Sign On (SSO) - Use this option if your Syndeia Cloud installation is configured with your organization’s SSO Identity Provider (IdP). Click on the Single Sign On (SSO) button and complete the authentication with the IdP.

Your Syndeia Cloud administrator will provide you specifics on the sign in option to use. If you are the Syndeia administrator, refer to the Deployment Guide on User Management for configuring Syndeia Cloud with these three forms of authentication.
