For the latest help, see <a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/field-explorer\/field-operator-administration\/authentication-and-authorization\/\">Authentication and Authorization.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\"><strong>Authentication<\/strong> is the process of confirming a user\u2019s identity. <strong>Authorization<\/strong> is the process of granting a user access to specific data. In Field Operator, Authentication is performed via 3 options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"intro-text\"><strong>On-Prem Domain<\/strong>: Users are authenticated by checking the credentials they\u2019ve entered against your company\u2019s on-premises Active Directory<\/li>\n<li class=\"intro-text\"><strong>P2 Central<\/strong>: For customers using software that\u2019s hosted by P2. Users are authenticated by a third-party Identity provider (Auth0). This option is new to version 4.7 and P2 will be working with hosted customers in the coming months to convert users to this architecture.<\/li>\n<li class=\"intro-text\"><strong>Private Azure API Management<\/strong>: (in beta) Customers can set up a single tenant instance of the Field Operator conduit and expose it through Azure API Management to authenticate users through Azure Active Directory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"page-subheading\">On-Prem Domain Authentication<\/h2>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">In most implementations Field Operator uses the corporate Active Directory for authenticating users. Only users with valid domain credentials can access any data. The list of ProCount routes to which a user is <em>authorized<\/em> to download comes from the eVIN Security settings set in the <strong>Field Operator Configuration Utility<\/strong> (same as with the eVIN Laptop app). The list of workbooks to which a user has access is retrieved from the Explorer API. Explorer security settings are set in the <strong>P2 Server Management<\/strong> web page.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3.png\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-54363\" src=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3.png\" alt=\"Diagram\n\nDescription automatically generated\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1036\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3.png 1980w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-768x796.png 768w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-1483x1536.png 1483w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-1977x2048.png 1977w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-145x150.png 145w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-600x622.png 600w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-1080x1119.png 1080w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-1280x1326.png 1280w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/diagram-description-automatically-generated-3-46x48.png 46w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\"><em>The Field Operator Server checks the user\u2019s credentials are valid against Active Directory and also checks that the user has access to the requested Route and Workbook data.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">Historically in the eVIN laptops application, the domain user\u2019s password was not required because it was assumed that the laptop was part of the domain and the user had to log into the domain when he logged into his computer. But for Field Operator, it is assumed that the tablet or phone running the app is not part of the domain, so the application requires the user to enter his domain password on the Sign In screen in Field Operator.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">These credentials are encrypted in transit and the user\u2019s password is never stored on the remote device. After initial authentication, the client application sends an encrypted security token that was generated by the Field Operator server instance. The token can only be utilized by the device to which it was issued to communicate with the instance that generated it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0.png\" rel=\"lightbox-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-54518\" src=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-600x462.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-600x462.png 600w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-768x591.png 768w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-1536x1182.png 1536w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-2048x1577.png 2048w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-150x115.png 150w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-1080x831.png 1080w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-1280x985.png 1280w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Snag_1096a9c0-48x37.png 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Setup<\/h3>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">This will be the standard configuration for most implementations.
