Introduction

The Tenant Admin Portal allows administrators to add a PC/SC Badge Input-enabled Connection to an Application. This ensures that the Application can authenticate users through PC/SC-compatible badge readers (e.g., HID cards). Adding the created PC/SC-enabled Connection to the Application enables secure and consistent badge-based authentication.

Prerequisite:

PC/SC Badge input enabled connection must be created. For more details refer How to create PC/SC Badge Input enabled Connections in the Tenant Admin Portal.

Steps to add PC/SC Badge input enabled Connection:

  1. Log in to the Tenant Admin Portal.

  2. On the home page of the portal, click Application name to edit.

    The Application details page is displayed.

  3. Go to Connection tab > select Add Connections.

    Note: Before adding a PC/SC Badge input enabled connection, ensure that the connection is already created and listed in the application list. To create a PC/SC Badge input enabled connection, refer to this link How to create PC/SC Badge Input enabled Connections in the Tenant Admin Portal.

    The Add Connections pop-up box is displayed.

  4. On the pop-up box, do the following:

    1. Select the preferred PC/SC Badge input enabled connection from Connection dropdown menu.

    2. Click Add.

      Note: An application can have a maximum of 5 Connections. All connections associated with a single application must be of the same type either all PC/SC Badge input enabled or all non-PC/SC Badge input enabled. Combining different connection types within the same application is not supported.

    The PC/SC enabled connection is added successfully.
