Configure Portal Settings

After Paragon Automation is installed or upgraded, a user with the SP administrator role must configure the Paragon Automation portal URL in the Paragon Automation GUI. The portal URL is used as follows:

  • Paragon Automation includes the portal URL in the e-mail that is sent to a user when the user’s account needs to be activated.

  • If you want to allow single sign-on (SSO) of users of a third-party application into Paragon Automation, you must use the portal URL when you register Paragon Automation with Keycloak.

Note:

Whenever the URL to access Paragon Automation is changed, you must update the Paragon Automation portal URL in the Portal Settings. This ensures that:

  • The activation e-mails sent to new users contain the correct link to access the Paragon Automation GUI.

  • Single sign-on users are able to access the Paragon Automation GUI.

To configure portal settings:

  1. Click Administration > Authentication > Portal Settings in the left navigation pane.

    The Portal Settings page appears.

  2. In the Portal URL text field, modify the URL present for accessing the Paragon Automation GUI. The URL must be in one of the following formats:
    • https://hostname.domain-name, where hostname is hostname on which Paragon Automation is installed, and domain-name is the domain assigned to the server; for example, pa-server.com.

    • https://server-ipv4-address, where server-ipv4-address is the IPv4 address of the server on which Paragon Automation is installed.

    By default, an accessible Web URL or the IPv4 address of the load balancer server is set as the portal URL.

  3. Click Save.

    A message indicating that the Paragon Automation portal URL is updated successfully is displayed.

What's Next

After you update the portal URL in the Paragon Automation GUI, you must inform existing users about the new URL to access Paragon Automation, through e-mail or some other means (for example, Slack).
