Hi Robert, Here’s a link to instructions on how to set up a test Active Directory instance which might work for your testing. I haven’t tried it yet. https://auth0.com/docs/connector/test-dc <https://auth0.com/docs/connector/test-dc> It might help.
As far as switching between 4D Authentication and SSO, I’m thinking that would be very useful. Even Microsoft SQL Server offers the option of Authentication via Windows Login (Active Directory) or SQL Server Login at client login time. The documentation doesn’t mention that kind of support though. http://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17/Single-Sign-On-SSO-on-Windows.300-3743254.en.html <http://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17/Single-Sign-On-SSO-on-Windows.300-3743254.en.html> I haven’t verified this.
