Active Directory Flow

Active Directory Workflow:

1. User sends the request to access the resource from application.

2. The Application sends an authentication request to miniOrange.

3. The miniOrange forwards the authentication request to Active Directory via miniOrange Gateway.

4. Active Directory sends the response to application through miniOrange. This response contains the user’s information as well as the authentication status, based on which the user is given access to the resource.

5. Upon successful authentication, the user is given access to the resource.
