Add administrators

You can use an externally authenticated account as a non-root administrator.

Non-root administrators in FileMaker Server

You can allow externally authenticated accounts to sign in to Admin Console and act as server administrators. These accounts can change any setting in FileMaker Server except the Admin Console user name and password.

  1. For Identity Authentication Settings, configure the External Accounts for Admin Console Sign In setting by entering the group name that will be used to authenticate access. (The format may be groupname, domain\groupname, or groupname@localmachine.)

  2. For Admin Console Sign In, enable External Accounts.
