MicroStrategy ONE
User Editor: Authentication Tab
Use the Authentication tab to specify the user's name or group to which they are linked for authentication. Depending on the authentication mode of the project, you should specify:
-
The Windows login of the user, if using Windows authentication or integrated authentication.
-
The Database login and Database password of the user, if using database authentication.
For security reasons, if you use database authentication, you should enable the setting "Create caches per database login," using the Project Configuration Editor in MicroStrategy Developer. Enabling this setting ensures that users who execute their reports using different database login IDs cannot use the same cache, and therefore cannot see each other's cached reports.
-
The LDAP login/distinguished name of the LDAP user, if using LDAP authentication.
-
Select the User cannot use standard authentication checkbox to ensure that the user cannot use standard MicroStrategy authentication to log in. (This checkbox is available only if a Windows login is specified above.)
