HelloID

Logex OpenID application setup
Introduction

This article demonstrates how to set up HelloID and Logex for single sign-on using the OpenID Connect protocol. The configuration takes place in HelloID and requires you to send information to Logex, so they can enable OpenID on your customer portal.

Requirements

  • HelloID environment

  • Logex environment

Create or import a certificate

If there is no certificate yet, you must create or import one. For this tutorial, we will create a self-signed certificate. Name it LogexSelfSigned.

Application setup
Add the Logex application

  1. Add a new application.

  2. Find the template for Logex (OpenIDConnect).

  3. Select its Add button.

Self Service tab

Optionally, generate a Self Service product, which makes the application requestable. Select a group which will have access to the product.

Select the Next button.

Finish tab

On the Finish tab, click Save to add the application to HelloID.

Supplier-side configuration

The HelloID side of the configuration is now finished.

To connect, Logex needs to add the connection on their side. Contact Logex to request this.

Send them the following information:

  • Discovery document URL

Discovery document

  1. Edit the newly-added Logex application.

  2. Right-click the View discovery document button

  3. Select Copy link. It will resemble: https://enyoi.helloid.com/oauth2/v2/e6e741f5-a469-4849-93f7-fe2e259a339f/.well-known/openid-configuration/.

Finish up

After Logex adds the connection, the application is ready for use. Go to the HelloID User Dashboard and launch the application. You should be authenticated into the Logex application without being prompted for credentials.

You are now free to test the application and assign it to users within your organization. See Applications - Overview and its related articles for more information.
