User Authentication with a Certificate

Anyone know if TM1 is capable of performing user Authentication with PKI certificates? I have a project where all the users are issued a Certificate and they would like to use it as the authentication rather then ID Password.

Hi Richard, all the details on that can be found in your TM1 security guide which should have been installed with the software. The extract from the first page says;
TM1 Authentication
When you install the TM1 server, you can select one of these authentication
methods.
• TM1 Authentication – TM1 server asks you for a user name and password,
and validates the login information against the security cube login
information.
• Integrated Login – Microsoft Windows performs the TM1 authentication.
• LDAP Authentication – TM1 server asks you for a user name and
password, and validates the login information against an external LDAP
server.
After you install the TM1 server, you can change the authentication method by
changing the parameters in the TM1 configuration files.
So that looks like the answer is no...
Regards,

Thanks. I have come to the same conclusion. I was hoping someone had done it before.
