 is a multi-tenant application. Tenants allow you to segregate groups of users and roles. Users from one tenant cannot access users in any other tenant. Note: this does not apply to public forms/flow which do not require login access to a tenant.

The  In-house superuser admin can create as many tenants on your form server as needed. Once the superuser admin creates the tenant, the tenant admin user can then login to manage the tenant, configure LDAP, add users & roles, etc. See the Admin Home Page for differences between the superuser admin and tenant admin. 

Info

trial tenants in the cloud are initially configured with the frevvo Default security Manager. Once you have purchased your license, you can switch the Security Manager of your tenant and retain existing forms/flows, users, roles and submissions.

Tenants using the Default Security Manager can be migrated to:

  • Default Security Manager → LDAP
  • Default Security Manager → SAML  
  • Default Security Manager →  Azure SAMLLDAP → SAML

Tenants using the LDAP Security Manager can migrate to:

  • LDAP → Azure SAML
  • SAML LDAP → Azure SAML

If you want to switch the security manager of your tenant, cloud customers should contact sales@frevvo.com to initiate the procedure.

The specification of http credentials for in-house customers was previously supported globally and configured in the httpclient-auth.properties file. This method is no longer used.  In-house customers using this file for HTTP authentication should read the Migration Considerations before upgrading to Live Forms v6.3.

To configure http security credentials at the tenant level, follow these steps:

  1. The Http Auth Credentials section is at the bottom of the Edit/Add tenant screens and is initially collapsed. Click the the icon to expand it.
  2. Enter the scheme from the dropdown. The admin may enter multiple credentials by clicking the icon. Each should be for a unique scheme/host/port/realm. The supported options are:
    1. Basic - a common HTTP Authentication protocol that  assumes that client credentials consist of a username and a password where the latter is a secret known only to you and the server

    2. NTLM - a Windows network authentication protocol that allows a client to prove its identity without sending a password to the server.

  3. Scheme, host, user name and password are required.

  4. Port is optional and may be left blank. Either blank or -1 equates to any port and the system will alter blank to be -1.

  5. All fields are specified in plain text and not encoded in any way.

  6. Domain is only generally used for NTLM.
