Set Authentication Type from SOTI Identity to SOTI MobiControl

Before you begin

Important: Obtain access to a local SOTI MobiControl account that is not governed by SOTI Identity. Once you switch authentication type, SOTI MobiControl logs you out and SOTI Identity credentials can no longer work.

About this task

If you want to log in to SOTI MobiControl with a local account (without SOTI Identity), you must first change Authentication Type from SOTI Identity to SOTI MobiControl.

After you change Authentication Type from SOTI Identity to SOTI MobiControl, SOTI MobiControl loses access to SOTI Identity and its other connected SOTI ONE applications.

To change Authentication Type to SOTI MobiControl:

Procedure

  1. Open the Main Menu and select Global Settings.
  2. Under Global Settings, select Console Settings > Authentication Options.
  3. For the Authentication Type, select the SOTI MobiControl radio button.
  4. Select Save, then select Continue to save your changes.

Results

SOTI MobiControl logs you out and you must use a local SOTI MobiControl account to log back into the console.

What to do next

Remove SOTI Identity as the IdP for SOTI MobiControl user management. Read Removing SOTI Identity as an Identity Provider for guidance.
