This article describes how to log in using an IAM account on FortiAuthenticator Cloud.

 

Scope

 

FortiAuthenticator Cloud.

 

Solution

 

Access to FortiAuthenticator Cloud is managed by FortiCloud SSO authentication. When there is a request to log in, the system will redirect to FortiCloud, and from there, it is possible to use an Alias, username, and password to log in. The system will grant access to FortiAuthenticator Cloud (FortiTrust ID).

 

  1. Login on https://support.fortinet.com/.

After logging in, the user is automatically created locally on FortiAuthenticator Cloud and assigned to the 'No-access Administrator' admin profile by default.

 

With an admin user, it is possible to create a new admin profile based on the desired permissions for the user.

Upon logging into FortiAuthenticator Cloud (FortiTrust ID), the account logged in will be displayed with the email address set during user creation.

The logs on FortiAuthenticator Cloud indicate successful user login.
