Integrate With Curity

This short guide provides details on how to configure Beyond Identity as an Identity Provider in the Curity Identity Server.

Prerequisites​

Create a Tenant​

Navigate here to Create a Tenant.

Once your tenant has been created with Beyond Identity, you can continue to create an Application.

Configuration​

Beyond Identity​

Outside of the prerequisites the only configuration that is needed on the Beyond Identity side is to make sure that an appropriate redirect_uri is configured in the OIDC client that is going to be used. Example: https://idsvr.example.com/authn/authentication/beyond/callback.

  • https://idsvr.example.com is the baseURL configured in the Curity Identity Server
  • /authn/authentication is the default authentication endpoint
  • /beyond is the ID of the OpenID Authenticator configured in the Curity Identity Server
  • /callback is indicating that this is the callback where the Beyond Identity Platform Authenticator should redirect back to when user authentication is completed

The Curity Identity Server​

If the Getting Started Guide is followed an OAuth client should have been configured. A new Authenticator needs to be configured.

  1. Navigate to Profiles -> Authentication Service -> Authenticators -> Choose New Authenticator
  2. Give it a name (beyond in this documentation) and choose OIDC as the type, click Next
  3. Add the Configuration URL - https://auth.byndid.com/v2/.well-known/openid-configuration
  4. Add the Client ID obtained from the Beyond Identity Admin UI
  5. Add the Client Secret obtained from the Beyond Identity Admin UI
  6. Set Client Authentication Method to client-secret
  7. Enable Use HTTP Basic Authentication

Test using OAuth.tools​

Assign the new authenticator to an OAuth client that has the Code Flow enabled in the Curity Identity Server.

Using that client in OAuth.tools , initiate a Code Flow. If multiple authenticators are configured for the client select the previously created OIDC Authenticator (beyond).

The flow should automatically trigger the Beyond Identity Platform Authenticator, authenticate the user and then direct back to OAuth.tools. If Auto-redeem code is enabled an Access Token, Refresh Token and optionally an ID Token should be issued.
