To add a PowerPoint Add-in authentication setting:
- Select the arrow below the Log in icon.
- Select Authentication Settings.
- In the Authentication Settings dialog, select the Add icon (+) at the bottom of the Environments panel.
A new environment displays in the panel. New environments added are named Default (1), Default (2), and so on. - Optionally, overwrite Default(1) in the Name field to change the name of the authentication setting.
- Enter the Connection URL for the environment.
- To check the Connection URL is valid, select Test Connection.
If it's a valid connection, a green checkmark displays. If it's invalid, a red cross displays. - To enable Single Sign-on (SSO), toggle right SSO Authentication and enter your SSO Friendly URL in the SSO Friendly URL field.
After you sign-on with SSO for the first time, the Excel Add-in appends?svcId=auth
to the URL. Do not remove this, as it's required for technical reasons. - Select one of the following options:
- Login to log in.
- OK to save the authentication settings and not log in.
- Cancel to close the dialog and not save any changes.
