FieldLogix & Microsoft Active Directory Single Sign On

Enterprise accounts use our integration to manage users in the Azure platform

FieldLogix telematics Single Sign On solution supports user access through Microsoft Active Directory.  This is helpful for organizations who wish to manage all of their user access rights to FieldLogix through a single management platform. 

Our supported identity provider is Microsoft Active directory and we use MS Active Directory Federation Services for Single Sign On.  Supported authentication methods are Oauth v2 and OpenID.

Your use of FieldLogix is governed by our our licensing agreement and privacy policy.

Prerequisites


  • A Microsoft Azure account with Azure AD activated
  • Permissions to add and manage AD Enterprise Applications, Single Sign On Users, and Roles.
  • A FieldLogix account. 
  • FieldLogix administrator access with “Edit all Users Ability” and “Full Fleet Access” enabled.
  • All of your users in your FieldLogix account will need an account in Azure Active Directory that is setup with the exact the same email address as their FieldLogix username.  (Azure AD will not create user accounts in FieldLogix)

Permissions required for Consent

Log into the FieldLogix portal
