We have a customer wants to integrate spotfire with Azure AD for authentication.
The integration itself works fine, but the problem is, each Azure AD account must login once, in order to auto-create a spotfire account, so admin can grant license & privileges for him.
Customer wants to create spotfire accounts for all Azure AD accounts before any login, so we figured some approach might be possible
(1) use Azure AD Domain service as "User Directory"
(2) develop custom post authentication filter to create spotfire user
(3) utilize Spotfire Server Web Service API to create spotfire user
All these need some work to do, the simplest thing I can find is the "config.bat create-user" command , it can be used to create a spotfire user but currently it doesn not support domain name as parameter, hence domain name is set as "SPOTFIRE" which mean it is a DB authentication user.
Please allow config.bat create-user command to take domain name as parameter, so we can use it to create spotfire users for Azure AD accounts.
