Authentication Method Id

The Authentication method ID is a unique and non-editable value used to identify the authentication method itself. This is a required field and can be referenced as an installation parameter in Templafy Desktop deployment or distributed via Registry key. By doing so, users will not have to select an authentication method each time Refresh Token is being renewed and the login shall succeed quietly without their interaction.

Login Button Name

This name will be shown to the users when logging into Templafy. Users will be asked to select their respective authentication method. It is therefore imperative to give it a meaningful and distinctive name to better guide them through the login process. To get more information how this is displayed to the users, kindly refer to the article Multiple authentication methods- end user perspective

Domains

Automatically create users from these email domains, specify in the text field which email domains (comma separated) should be registered to allow users coming from these domains to have access to the Templafy account.
