Electronic Plan Review Portal Authentication after OnBase upgrade to 22.x using IdP

[Margaret_Huang]

We are planning to upgrade our OnBase from EP1 to 22.x. I like to know what authentication options are available for Plan Review Portal. Currently, the Portal is using  SQL authentication in our EP1. Will we be able to using OKTA or Cisco DUO after upgrade? If so, do Plan Review portal users need to re-register their accounts?

Any information will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Margaret,

Presently I have no knowledge of additional authentication options for the Plan Review Portal that would be available.  Upon upgrading all existing portal accounts will work the same as before the upgrade.

However, the reviewer users using the Unity Client have other authentication methods available using IdP.

@Margaret Huang, 

One thing of note: there is a way to manage the Plan Review Portal users using the "Plan Review Toolkit".  This would not change the authorization process but would allow for an integration to another user management system.
