inWebo Integration for user authentication

Overview

 inWebo authentication can be used as an OTP authentication provider with Comala Document Control for Cloud when using the Quality Management Systems workflow.

The inWebo Service ID and inWebo API key - both provided by the inWebo app - must be added to the global configuration of Comala Document Control.

Each user to undertake an approval with the requirement for an e-signature will need to

• be configured as a user in inWebo administration for access for the appropriate inWebo Service ID
• download and install the inWebo authentication mobile app to generate an OTP token
• add their inWebo username and the OTP token to the workflow popup to activate the approval buttons

Using inWebo will disable the use of other 2FA apps and the OTP authentication is managed through inWebo MFA authentication services.
