About UAA Dashboard

The UAA Dashboard is a graphical user interface available on predix.io to configure and manage your UAA security service instance.

Some of the tasks that you can accomplish using UAA Dashboard are:

  • View the clients, users and identity providers related to your UAA instance.
  • View clients associated with your service instances.
  • Create and manage clients.
  • Create and manage users and groups.
  • Manage SSO configuration with SAML or OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity providers.
  • Manage password policies for user passwords.

View, Create, and Manage Clients

You can create additional clients for different applications that authenticate with the same UAA server instance. You can assign different access permissions to each client depending on your application's requirement. Use the Client Management tab in UAA Dashboard to view, create and manage your OAuth clients.

View, Create, and Manage Users and Groups

The authentication flow for authorization grant type such as Authorization Code, Implicit, and Resource Owner Password involves users that provide their username and password credentials to an application. You can either create users locally within UAA or federate to an external identity provider. Use the User Management tab in the UAA Dashboard to create users locally in UAA and manage them for your application. Additionally you can create groups that represent the privileges a user can potentially have.

Manage SSO configuration with SAML or OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity providers

Use the Identity Providers tab in the UAA Dashboard to manage your identity providers and service providers in UAA. For more information on integrating with identity providers, see Managing Identity Providers.

Add and Manage Password Policies

Use the Password Policy tab in the UAA Dashboard to configure the user accounts in UAA with password policy such as length, accepted or required character types, expiration times, and reset policy.
