Connecting to the Web Interface

To connect to the Web Interface, you must know the name of the web server running the Web Interface and the name of the Web Interface site you want to access. The default site names are as follows:

  • ARWebAdmin: The Administration Site for administrators, supporting a wide range of organization-level and Active Roles administration tasks.

  • ARWebHelpDesk: The Helpdesk Site, supporting the most common resource administration tasks.

  • ARWebSelfService: The Self-Service Site, allowing users to manage their own accounts.

To connect to the Web Interface

  1. Open the web browser of your choice.

  2. In the address bar of your browser, enter the address of the Web Interface site you want to connect, then press Enter.

    For example, to connect to the default site for administrators, enter <server>/ARWebAdmin where <server> is the name of the web server running the Web Interface.

    TIP: If you want to open a Web Interface site on the computer where the Active Roles Web Interface component is deployed, you can also specify localhost in the address instead of the server name, such as: localhost/ARWebAdmin.

Changing personal settings in the Web Interface

When using the Web Interface, you can configure various personal settings, like the user interface language, or the amount of directory objects to list per page.

To change personal settings in the Web Interface

  1. In your browser, open the Active Roles Web Interface.

  2. In the header, click Active Roles 8.1.3 > Settings.

  3. Configure the following settings as you need:

    • User interface language: Specifies the language of the Web Interface. This setting affects all menus, commands, and forms of the Web Interface, as well as tooltips and help text.

      NOTE: By default, the Web Interface contains only English localization. Installing the Active Roles Language Pack adds support for the following languages:

      • Chinese (Simplified and Traditional)

      • French

      • German

      • Portuguese (Brazilian and European)

      • Spanish

      For more information, see Active Roles Language Pack in the Active Roles Administration Guide.

    • Maximum number of objects to display in search results: Specifies the maximum number of objects to display in single-page lists, such as lists of search results or lists that show contents of containers. The supported value range is 1–20000, and the default value is 1000.

      TIP: Use this setting carefully, as displaying a large number of objects may negatively impact browser performance. Instead of displaying all objects, One Identity recommends using the available search and filtering options to find the objects you need.

    • Number of items to display per page in paged lists: Specifies the maximum number of list items displayed on a single page in multi-page lists. This setting affects only lists (such as approval task lists) that are divided into pages. The supported value range is 1–10000, and the default value is 20.

      TIP: Use this setting carefully, as specifying a small value may result in many pages to list through, while specifying a large value can negatively impact browser performance.

    • Number of page links to display for paged lists: Specifies the maximum number of page number links displayed for multi-page lists. This setting affects only lists (such as approval task lists) that are divided into pages. The supported value range is 1–1000, and the default value is 5.

    • Time (in minutes) for which the notification is visible: Specifies the number of minutes for which Web Interface notifications will be visible on the user interface. The supported value range is 0–43200, and the default value is 0. Keeping the default value of 0 results in notifications never disappearing.

    • Maximum number of notifications to be stored in Active Roles: Specifies the maximum number of notifications to be stored in the Active Roles database. The supported value range is 5–1000, and the default value is 1000.

    • Show objects owned by inheritance or secondary ownership: When selected, the My Managed Resources page of the Web Interface will also list objects of which the user is not the primary owner (manager), but the secondary or inherited owner.

  4. To apply your changes, click Save.

    TIP: Active Roles saves the personal settings on a per-user basis in the Web Interface site configuration. Once saved, the personal settings take effect regardless of which computer you use to access Web Interface. As such, you can configure different personal settings for different Web Interface sites.

Logging out of the Web Interface

Logging out of the Web Interface can save Web Interface users from harmful security breaches. Therefore, make sure to always log out of the Web Interface when you finished working with the Web Interface.

NOTE: Failure to log out after finishing work in the Web Interface may pose a security risk (for example, when accessing the Web Interface from a public computer). Therefore, the Web Interface can automatically stop your session in case of user inactivity.

Active Roles administrators can specify the duration of this inactivity timeout, ensuring that the session is not stopped unexpectedly. The Active Roles Web Interface warns you with a pop-up message if you approach the configured idle timeout limit. The session is then stopped after an additional grace period if you take no action.

To log out of the Web Interface

  1. In the Web Interface title bar, click your user name.

  2. Click Log out.

    Active Roles then closes the current Web Interface session and deletes all session-related data from the computer you used to access the Web Interface.
