Configuring Authentication Methods

The LMS supports several authentication methods, (Username/Password, SSO, Both). When your system is upgraded to LMS v4, Intellek will migrate your existing authentication settings from LMS v3. In LMS v4, you will have access to the Setup Authentication tool, which allows your organization to update and manage authentication methods at any time.

We recommended assigning a designated technical team member to manage this function within the LMS and ensure they have the appropriate administrative rights.

LMS v4 features a Hybrid Authentication Model, enabling clients to support multiple authentication methods for their Users.
