Generating SSO service account credentials
Acronis uses OpenID Connect (OIDC) to pass user authentication to one or more Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI) on the vendor cloud service. When you create an SSO service account on Acronis, to avoid scams, user data theft, etc., you must must define in advance the list of URIs to which Acronis will allow SSO redirects. These URIs might depend on the region, or they might depend on different scenarios, and for each scenario you want to redirect the user to a specific part of the vendor console.
Important
If you need to update the list of redirect URIs on the vendor cloud service, you must regenerate the SSO service account credentials.
