Add a hook for admin login like ClientLoginShare so authentication can be done elsewhere
Planned
Would be useful for authenticating administrators via an active directory server or elsewhere. This would come in handy in a corporate environment.
I like this idea
Hello,
I believe this feature request covers your request:http://requests.whmcs.com/responses/active-directory-integration-for-authentication
On the surface, yes. However, this feature request is a specific way of doing so (by implementing a hook) instead of requiring a full implementation.
We are investigating and planning to provide a solution for this feature request.
As noted by Mr. Anderson, this feature request is not about providing a direct support for Active Directory, but a change that could provide the ability for validation dispatch to a 3rd-party routine/system (which may or may not be Active Directory).
The current scope will be limited to Admin's first-factor password validation. This scope will include any routines where in password validation is required for A) login or B) API.
For clarity, second-factor validation is out-of-scope for this feature request since A) second factor validations are by nature a dispatch for authenticity and B) the second-factor system as implemented in WHMCS is already extensible. As well, OAuth behaviors/routines not be modified or negatively affected by any implemented change. Thanks!
