Allowing Android App Users to Sign in with MicroStrategy IdentityUsing App-to-App Authentication

Users can log in to your third-party Android app by authenticating with MicroStrategy Identity. Follow the steps below if your third-party mobile app is not supported by a third-party mobile server.

If your third-party mobile app is supported by a server, MicroStrategy strongly recommends that you configure your third-party app and server using the Identity single sign-on (SSO) APIs, as described in Allowing Android App Users to Sign In with MicroStrategy Identity Using Server-to-Server Authentication. Doing so enables the communication and validation to take place between your mobile server and MicroStrategy Identity Server, rather than between apps.

To enable users to sign in to your third-party Android app using MicroStrategy Identity, follow these steps:

  1. Register Your Third-Party iOS App with MicroStrategy Identity
  2. Configure Your Android App
  3. Use the MicroStrategy Identity SSO Library to Authenticate Your Android App

Once configured, you can customize your app permissions. For customization options, see List of permissions and server APIs for Android.

You must have an environment for Android development, as Android SDK is necessary.

To display a custom image for your mobile app configuration displayed in MicroStrategy Identity Manager, you must create the image to display. Supported image formats are .png, .jpeg, and .jpg file types.
