Requesting external federation for your web-based service

 

Intended for:

Service providers of Fermilab web-based services

 


Scenario/Use case:

This article details how to request external federation for your web-based service that uses SSO authentication. By using external federation, you can provide access to individuals who don’t have Fermilab accounts by allowing them to use their home organization’s credentials to authenticate.

At this time, Fermilab supports three options for federated access:

    1) DOE Complex: FNAL, ANL, BNL, DOE OneID, JLAB, LBL, ORNL, Stanford, ...

    2) CERN: Requires a current agreement between your collaboration and CERN.

    3) Both DOE Complex and CERN


Instructions:

To request external federation for your web-based service, open a General Request ticket in ServiceNow:
