    Hi Adil,

    It should be fairly straight forward, with Spotfire 7.8 and later. Here's an article outlining the process: https://support.tibco.com/s/article/How-to-configure-openID-connect-authentication-with-Azure-in-Spotfire

    There's unfortunately no out-of-the-box support for synchronization of group memberships or such (the Spotfire Server doesn't have dedicated Azure AD support but support for OpenID Connect - which doesn't specify how to handle groups) but that can for example be implemented using a custom PostAuthenticationFilter (or by using the User Directory Web Service API).

    Hi Jens,

    We didn’t succeed on impleenting azure authentication in our environment (Spotfire 7.10).

    Tibco support team told us the only way to use azure authentication is to implement Kerberos sso.

    Can you share details on implementation please.

    thanks and regards.

    The Spotfire Server supports OpenID Connect authentication - which may be used towards Azure AD (regardless of how the users are authenticated there, multi-factor or not). The Android and iOS apps works well with this authentication mechanism.
