Displaying a link to redirect existing users to Employee Self Service using secadm

On-premises customers who prefer to use the secadm command-line tool can perform the configuration described here to add a link to the Employee Self Service log-in page that allows existing users to log in to their accounts.

This prevents confusion for users and the creation of multiple accounts.

The feature is not available by default. Making it available requires the security administrator to add service properties to the authenticating service.

  1. Enable the external login page feature. From a command line in Landmark, specify:
    secadm -p <PASSWORD> service property add <PRIMARY SERVICE NAME> EnableInternalUsersLoginURL --property value <true/false>
    Where:
    • <PASSWORD> is the password to the secadm command line tool
    • <PRIMARY SERVICE NAME> is the name of the of the authenticating service, for example, SSOPV2
    • <true/false> is the value you want to select for the EnableInternalUsersLoginUrl. Selecting true enables the URL.
    Example: secadm -p Password!123 service property add SSOPV2 EnableInternalUsersLoginUrl --propertyvalue true
  2. Configure the redirect URL to an external login page. From a command line in Landmark, specify:
    secadm -p <PASSWORD> service property add <PRIMARY SERVICE NAME> InternalUsersLoginURL --property value <STATIC_URL_TO_EXTERNAL_LOGIN_PAGE>
    Where:
    • <PASSWORD> is the password to the secadm command line tool
    • <PRIMARY SERVICE NAME> is the name of the of the authenticating service, for example, SSOPV2
    • <STATIC_URL_TO_EXTERNAL_LOGIN_PAGE> is the static URL that existing users use to log into your system
    Example: secadm -p Password!123 service property add SSOPV2 InternalUsersLoginUrl --propertyvalue CompanyABCExternalLoginPage
