Single Sign On

We provide SSO integrated into your system using WHMCS, so that existing users in your system don’t have to re-register. Users are redirected to your login area using a single-use access token.

For account connected using Single Sign On, registration must be done from your website.

We may provide an account registration link from the Awanio login page to the Registration page on your website. After the registration process is complete on your website, you can return to the Awanio login page to then log in via SSO.

Available properties and uses

This section explains the properties you can store on the User, and the effects of each.

Customer profile

A basic customer profile is useful for invoice generation (full name and email), if the user is the primary admin in the organization that has the resource entered into the bill. In addition to being shown in the application, the invoice is also sent to the user’s email.

Active status

A newly registered user will have inactive status. The administrator has to activate it via the user update feature, or the user itself can enter a verification code sent to their email to activate the account. The active user then can log in to Awanio.
