Logging In & Out

Login

When you install STINGAR on your local server, a default 'admin' user is automatically created. The first thing you are prompted to do after installation is enter a password for this user.

Define Admin User Password

After defining the password for 'admin', the STINGAR UI is accessible to the 'admin' user from the STINGAR home page on any browser.

Basic Login

Once logged in, the 'admin' user can use the User Management feature to grant others access to STINGAR. Any user can access STINGAR with the login ID/password they've been assigned. Every user is also assigned an API key that allows them to retrieve information from the STINGAR API. For more information about user management (include information about changing the password and accessing a user's API Key, please see the User Management Documentation.

LDAP Login

Your implementation of STINGAR may include an LDAP login option which allows users to use their instituitional credentials to access STINGAR. Each user must still have a STINGAR user account for access, but they can authenticate against your organizations LDAP system so they are able to use the password they commonly use for other apps within the organization.

To enable this LDAP login feature, you need to update the following LDAP environment variables in the stingar.env file (This resides in the root directory of your STINGAR implementation.)

  • LDAP_ENABLED=true
  • LDAP_HOST=
  • LDAP_PORT=
  • LDAP_BASE=

The values of the LDAP HOST, PORT & BASE must be set to those of your organization. If you enable LDAP, you will need to stop and restart STINGAR, and then an option to login via LDAP will appear on the login page.
