PARTNER ADMIN GUIDE

Configure tenant access and identity

Control how users enter a tenant, connect single sign-on, provision identities, organise users into teams and grant access to Designer capabilities.

Partnership administrator10–20 minutes, depending on the identity setup

Scope: individual tenant

Access settings apply to the selected tenantA partnership administrator can configure each member tenant independently according to the customer's identity and governance requirements.

How tenant access is organised

Tenant access is split across three related areas.

1. Sign-in and identity
Control password login, single sign-on, email domains, provisioning and local users.
2. Teams
Group users for membership and solution-level scoping.
3. Roles
Control which Designer capabilities each user may access.

Authentication determines who the user is. Teams organise where the user belongs. Roles determine what the user can use.

Access and identity guides

Choose how users sign in

A tenant can use local password accounts, single sign-on or a combination allowed by its configuration.

Password login
Users sign in using an email address and password stored for the tenant.
Greentic SSO
Greentic operates the identity service and manages the tenant's OIDC client.
External OIDC
The tenant connects to a customer-managed OpenID Connect identity provider.
The Sign-in tab controls password login and SSO entry rules.
RecommendationUse local password accounts for initial testing or a small controlled user group. For customer production environments, configure the organisation's preferred single sign-on method where available.

The Sign-in tab also controls

  • Whether password login is enabled
  • Whether SSO users may create a password
  • Whether SSO access is restricted to invited or existing users
Read the sign-in guide

Connect single sign-on

The SSO tab determines which identity service the tenant uses.

Greentic SSO with the managed SSO client in the Active state.
None
The tenant does not use SSO.
Greentic SSO
Greentic manages the OIDC client. The administrator selects the identity service and activates or re-provisions the tenant client.
External OIDC
The customer supplies and manages its own OpenID Connect configuration.
  1. 1Open the tenant.
  2. 2Select Access.
  3. 3Open SSO & users.
  4. 4Select the SSO tab.
  5. 5Choose Greentic SSO.
  6. 6Confirm the OIDC issuer.
  7. 7Save the SSO configuration.
  8. 8Provision or re-provision the SSO client when required.
  9. 9Confirm that the SSO client status is Active.
Do not treat SSO as ready too earlySSO is not usable until the SSO client shows an Active status.
Re-provisioning refreshes the managed client and may also re-pull the tenant's users and teams from the identity service.

Route company domains to SSO

Email domains associate company email addresses with the tenant's SSO configuration.

Domains route recognised company email addresses to the tenant's SSO.
Unverified domain
Users from the domain can be routed to SSO, but domain ownership has not been confirmed.
Verified domain
The required DNS record has been published and confirmed. Depending on the tenant configuration, users from the domain may self-onboard.
  1. 1Configure and activate SSO first.
  2. 2Open Access → SSO & users → Domains.
  3. 3Enter the customer's email domain, such as acme.com.
  4. 4Select Add domain.
  5. 5Save the domain list.
  6. 6Start domain verification.
  7. 7Copy the generated DNS TXT record.
  8. 8Ask the customer's domain administrator to publish it.
  9. 9Verify the domain again after DNS propagation.
Email domains are not web domainsEmail domains are used for identity routing. They are not the same as the custom web domain used to access the branded Designer. See custom domains.
Read the domains guide

Add local users

The Users tab lists identities available within the tenant. Local users can be created directly when password login is enabled, while SSO or provisioned users may arrive through the configured identity service.

The Users tab lists tenant identities.
Add user creates a local password account.
  1. 1Open Access → SSO & users → Users.
  2. 2Select Add user.
  3. 3Enter the user's email address.
  4. 4Optionally enter a display name.
  5. 5Select the initial role available in the form.
  6. 6Create a secure password that meets the displayed requirements.
  7. 7Select Create user.
Prefer centrally managed identityOnly create local password users when they are required by the tenant's chosen sign-in model. Prefer centrally managed identity for larger customer deployments.
Show mergedWhen supported by the tenant configuration, merged results can help display identities collected from multiple identity or provisioning sources.

Provision users from an identity provider

SCIM provisioning enables a customer identity provider, such as Microsoft Entra ID or Okta, to create and update users in the tenant directory.

Provisioning exposes the SCIM base URL, token generation and user sync.
Inbound SCIM provisioning
Use the SCIM base URL and a generated token to connect the customer's identity provider.
User synchronisation
Pull tenant users from the connected identity service manually or on the platform schedule.
  1. 1Open Access → SSO & users → Provisioning.
  2. 2Copy the SCIM base URL.
  3. 3Enter a descriptive token label, such as “Customer Entra ID”.
  4. 4Generate the provisioning token.
  5. 5Copy and store the token securely when it is shown.
  6. 6Configure the customer identity provider using the SCIM URL and token.
  7. 7Use Sync now to test user synchronisation.
  8. 8Enable scheduled auto-sync where appropriate.
Treat SCIM tokens as secretsDo not place them in documentation, screenshots, source control or unsecured messages.

Organise users into teams

Teams group tenant users for membership and solution-level scoping. Every tenant may include a default General team, and additional teams can be created for business units, projects or customer groups.

Teams list membership and scoping groups for the tenant.
Add team asks for a slug and a display name.
  1. 1Open Access → Teams.
  2. 2Select Add team.
  3. 3Enter a stable slug.
  4. 4Enter the user-facing team name.
  5. 5Select Save.
  6. 6Open Members for the team.
  7. 7Add the relevant tenant users.
Use concise, stable slugs because they may be referenced by policies or integrations. Use clear display names that users and administrators will recognise.
General
Default tenant membership.
Customer Service
Users responsible for customer support solutions.
Operations
Users responsible for operational workflows.

These are examples only. Apart from a default team, teams are not created automatically.

Control access to Designer capabilities

Roles determine which Designer surfaces and capabilities each tenant user can access.

Roles are assigned per user, per capability.
Agentic Worker
Access to agentic worker capabilities.
Flow Editor
Access to deterministic flow-design functionality.
SoRLa
Access to supported SoRLa composition capabilities.
OperaLa
Access to supported OperaLa composition capabilities.
Telco-X Playbook
Access to the Telco-X Playbook Composer where enabled.
  1. 1Open Access → Roles.
  2. 2Find the user by name or email.
  3. 3Select the capabilities the user requires.
  4. 4Remove access that is not needed.
  5. 5Confirm that the role changes have been saved or applied.
Grant least privilegeGrant only the capabilities required for the user's responsibilities. Review role assignments when users change teams, projects or responsibilities.

Recommended identity setup order

  1. 1Decide whether the tenant will use passwords, SSO or both.
  2. 2Configure and activate the SSO client where required.
  3. 3Add and verify customer email domains.
  4. 4Configure SCIM provisioning or add initial local users.
  5. 5Synchronise and confirm the tenant user list.
  6. 6Create the required teams.
  7. 7Add users to teams.
  8. 8Assign the minimum required Designer roles.
  9. 9Test sign-in using a non-administrator account.
  10. 10Review the configuration before production launch.
Always test with a normal user accountAn administrator's existing session may hide routing, permissions or onboarding problems.
