You can use single sign-on (SSO) to connect to a JasperReports Server instance that has been configured to work with the Central Authentication Service (CAS) protocol. For information about configuring CAS for JasperReports Server, see the JasperReports Server External Authentication Cookbook.
Configure JasperReports Server:
| 1. | Before you begin, configure your JasperReports Server instance for CAS, as described in the JasperReports Server External Authentication Cookbook. |
Add the CAS server to your Jaspersoft Studio workspace:
| 1. | In Jaspersoft Studio, select Window > Preferences (Eclipse > Preferences on Mac). |
| 2. | In the Preferences window, navigate to Jaspersoft Studio > Jaspersoft Server Setting > Single Sign On Server. |
|
Single Sign On Servers in Preferences Dialog |
| 3. | In the Single Sign On Servers pane, click Add. |
| 4. | Enter the URL of your CAS server along with the username and password you want to use for access. |
|
SSO Server Settings Dialog |
The CAS server is added to the list of available single sign-on servers.
Configure your JasperReports Server connection to use CAS:
| 1. | In Jaspersoft Studio, open the Repository Explorer, then click the Create a JasperReports Server Connection icon |
| 2. | Select Advanced Settings. |
| 3. | Enable the Use Single Sign On option. |

| 6. | Click Test Connection to test the connection. This may take some time, especially the first time you connect. |
