Configure the organization authentication method

  1. In the left pane, click
    Methods
    .
    The
    Methods
     page differs depending on the pre-defined organization authentication method.
  2. For organizations that have one authentication method, select the authentication type:
    • Email Authentication
    • Username & Password
    • Active Directory
    • BlackBerry Enterprise Identity
  3. For all authentication types, set the default token management:
    1. In the
      Access token TTL
       box, enter the validity period in minutes for each specific token created. This value is usually shorter or equal to the Refresh token TTL.
    2. In the
      Refresh token TTL
       box, enter the period in minutes after which inactive users are required to sign in again.
    3. Select
      Auto-renew refresh token
       to require users to re-authenticate when the refresh token expires, even if users were active during this period.
  4. If you enabled Office Online, in the
    Access token TTL
     box, enter the validity period in minutes for each specific token created.
  5. If desired, manage the tokens for each
    BlackBerry Workspaces
     application.
    If you change the token settings for a
    BlackBerry Workspaces
     application, the settings for that application are irrevocably decoupled from the default token management. Any subsequent changes to the default token management will not apply to the application.
  6. If you selected
    Username & Password
     as the authentication type, or your organization is set to multimode authentication, configure the username and password settings. For more information, see About username and password authentication.
  7. If you selected
    BlackBerry Enterprise Identity
     as the authentication type, configure the
    Enterprise Identity
     settings. For more information, see About BlackBerry Enterprise Identity authentication.
