Configuring OIDC Authentication on Windows

You can configure the connector to use the OpenID Connect (OIDC) protocol to authenticate the connection.

To configure OIDC authentication on Windows:

  1. Open the ODBC Data Source Administrator where you created the DSN, select the DSN, and then click Configure.
  2. From the Authentication Type drop-down list, select OIDC Authentication.
  3. In the User field, type the user name for accessing the data store.
  4. To configure client-server verification over SSL, click SSL Options. For more information, see Configuring SSL Verification on Windows.
  5. To save your settings and close the dialog box, click OK.
  6. When you test the connection or when you connect to your Starburst Enterprise server, a browser opens to the redirect URI. Type your credentials and click OK.

The connector retrieves an access token, and you can connect to your Starburst Enterprise server. If the access token expires or become invalid, it will be automatically renewed.
