Configuring Weibo Authentication Source

Overview

Weibo authentication login allows users to securely log in to third-party applications or websites using Weibo as the authentication source. To facilitate enterprise users' authentication login, the IDaaS platform supports configuring Weibo as an authentication source. Users can log in to various application systems through Weibo authentication, providing enterprise users with a simpler and more convenient login method and a better user experience.

This section describes the related operations for configuring the Weibo authentication source.

Prerequisites

• Have administrator permissions for the Weibo Open Platform.
• Have administrator permissions for the IDaaS Enterprise Center platform.

Steps

Creating an Application and Obtaining Parameters on the Weibo Open Platform

Create the corresponding application based on the actual required Weibo authentication method:

• Configure Weibo Scan Code Login: Log in to the Weibo Open Platform (opens new window), select "Micro Connections > Website Integration", click "Integrate Now" to create a website application, obtain the AppKey and AppSecret parameters, then submit for release review. The Weibo authentication function can be officially used only after the review is passed and the application is online.

  In the "Application Information > Advanced Information" page, configure the OAuth2.0 authorization settings. Add the tenant's callback address, which can be obtained from the Weibo authentication source parameters in the "Authentication > Authentication Source Management" section of the IDaaS Enterprise Center.

  

• Configure Weibo Mobile Authorization Login: Log in to the Weibo Open Platform (opens new window), select "Micro Connections > Mobile Application", click "Integrate Now" to create a mobile application, obtain the AppKey and AppSecret parameters, then submit for release review. The Weibo authentication function can be officially used only after the review is passed and the application is online.

  

Configuring the Weibo Authentication Source on the IDaaS Platform

1. Log in to the IDaaS Enterprise Center platform. In the top navigation bar, select "Authentication > Authentication Source Management > Weibo", enter the Weibo authentication source page, and click "Add Authentication Source".

   

2. Configure the Weibo authentication source parameters by referring to the interface prompts. Key parameter descriptions are as follows.

   

   • Login Scenario: Select the login scenario based on the Weibo authentication type, including PC Browser Scan Code Login and Mobile APP Authorization Login, corresponding to Weibo Scan Code Login and Weibo Mobile Authorization Login methods respectively.
   • When No User is Associated: This refers to when the authentication source attributes of the user information returned by the Weibo platform do not match the associated user attributes in IDaaS, and no system user is linked. The optional configuration items are as follows.
     • Bind: When set to "Bind", if no user is associated, the system will redirect to a phone number or email verification page. Entering an existing phone number or email in IDaaS and verifying successfully will authenticate that user.
     • Bind or Register: When set to "Bind or Register", if no user is associated, the system will redirect to a phone number or email verification page. Entering an existing phone number or email in IDaaS and verifying successfully will authenticate that user. If a phone number or email not existing in IDaaS is entered and verified successfully, an IDaaS user will be created based on that phone number or email and authenticated.
