Introduction

Use this guide along with the Data Tab Configuration guide to configure a SecureAuth IdP realm that uses SQL Server as an additional Profile Provider.

Prerequisites

1. Have an on-premises SQL Server data store

2. Designate a service account with read access (and optional write access) for SecureAuth IdP

SQL Server Configuration Steps

1. In the Profile Provider Settings section, select True from the Same as Above dropdown to copy the data store integration from the Membership Connection Settings section for use in profile connection; or select False if that directory is only used for the membership connection.

2. Select SQL Server from the Default Profile Provider dropdown if SQL is to be used as the default profile provider

  • If another SQL Server data store is configured in the Membership Connection Settings section, and True is selected from the Same as Above dropdown, then those settings appear in the Profile Connection Settings (below) and must be modified to reflect the settings of the new SQL Server data store
  • Only one SQL Server can be utilized for profile connection
  • If another directory is selected from the Default Profile Provider dropdown, then SQL Server must be selected from Source dropdown in the Profile Fields section for the SecureAuth IdP Properties that are mapped to SQL Server fields
Profile Connection Settings

3. Select SQL Server from the Data Store dropdown

4. Provide the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or the IP Address in the Data Source field

5. Provide the Database Name in the Initial Catalog field

6. Select True from the Integrated Security dropdown if the IIS app pool's service account is to be used in the connection (see Integrated Auth Requirements below)

Select False to specify a SQL service account instead

Integrated Auth Requirements

1. Join the server to the domain to utilize a domain service account

2. In IIS, set the application pool Identity for both the .NET v4.5 and SecureAuth0 app pools to use the preferred service account; and set Load User Profile to True

3. Make the service account a member of the local administrators group of the SecureAuth IdP server(s)

4. Perform an IIS reset after making the changes

7. Select True from the Persist Security Info dropdown if access to the username and password information is allowed

8. Provide the User ID of the SecureAuth IdP Service Account (if False is selected in step 6)

9. Provide the Password associated to the User ID (if False is selected in step 6)

10. Click Generate Connection String, and the Connection String auto-populates

11. Create a list of Allowed Groups that can access the target resource of this realm

12. Provide the Stored Procedure Name for Get Profile SP

13. Provide the Stored Procedure Name for Update Profile SP

14. Click Test Connection to ensure that the connection is successful
