Microsoft Active Directory
 authentication

Microsoft Windows
 credentials can be used by end users to log into 
BlackBerry Workspaces
. Configuring the 
Workspaces
 server to integrate with 
Active Directory
 allows 
Windows
 credentials to be used during the authentication process. 
To perform the integration for authentication with 
Windows
 credentials, contact your 
BlackBerry Workspaces
 Technical Account Manager for help with the configuration process. 
Note: As of 
BlackBerry Workspaces
 version 7.0, ADFS metatdata can be retrieved from the identity provider every 15 minutes. This allows the most up-to-date metadata to be available, and reduces failed login attempts for new users. For more information on configuring a SAML-based identity provider such as ADFS, visit support.blackberry.com/community to read article 52826.
