Configuring an authentication provider in
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle

You can view the authentication provider details by using the
Settings
tab in
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
.
The
Authentication Provider Information
section displays the type of the existing authentication provider, the authentication provider endpoint, the registered FQDN of the application, client ID, and the name of the catalog application.
The
Authentication Provider Action
section offers syncing and re-registering capabilities. When you change or update the host name or FQDN of
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
, the authentication provider must sync with the host name. The
Sync
button ensures that the current host name or FQDN of
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
is synced with
VMware Workspace ONE Access
. After syncing, you can verify the target URL and the redirect URI in the
Catalog
tab of
VMware Workspace ONE Access
.
The
RE-REGISTER
button allows re-registering of
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
with
VMware Workspace ONE Access
by creating new
OAuth
clients and catalog applications. The re-registering action occurs when
VMware Workspace ONE Access
is present in
globalenvironment
of
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
.
When upgrading
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
8.1 and earlier releases, the catalog application ID for updating the existing catalog application is not saved, so a duplicate catalog application is created. The new host name and catalog application ID is saved in the inventory which is used for the subsequent operations.
