Adding new workflow credentials using Azure AD

Hi All,

We have a server running on a virtual machine configured using SAML authentication linked to Azure for SSO.

When trying to add workflow credentials, the only successful attempt has been using the local log in information for the VM and we cannot get it to recognise user credentials from the Azure active directory.

How can I get the server to validate and utilise credentials from the Azure AD and not on premise users?

We only support the AD that is present where the server is installed. then your local AD needs to trust both ways your AD Azure. It needs to be the same forest.

Outside of Alteryx Server: can you query the Azure AD from where the server is installed? If not you would need help from IT. It might be that you need to move your server installation where it would have access to Azure AD.

Thanks for the reply Loic, I have some further information from our IT team.

In our scenario the server is not installed in any AD at all: it is created as a standalone server inside Azure. The gallery is set up using SAML to Azure AD, but the server itself is not joined to Azure AD and for admin access uses local accounts which we use on RDP to access the server.

In this scenario will we still be able to use AAD credentials within the ‘Run the Worker as a different user’ options within the “Server Config\Worker\Run As” section?
