This article describes the authentication and identity management options supported by Microix Workflow Modules, including the differences between the Classic and Modern versions.
It also addresses support for common identity and access management (IAM) standards such as SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect (OIDC), and SCIM.
The Classic version supports the following authentication methods:
The Modern version supports:
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) using:
| Standard | Support | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| SAML 2.0 | Not directly supported | Microix does not currently provide native SAML 2.0 authentication, including direct SAML integration with Okta. |
| OpenID Connect (OIDC) | Not directly supported | Microix does not currently provide native OIDC authentication. (Roadmap for support in 4th Qt 2026.) |
| SCIM | Not supported | SCIM-based automated user provisioning and deprovisioning is not currently available. |
| Microsoft Entra ID | Supported in Modern | Microsoft Entra ID authentication is available with Microix Workflow Modules Modern. |
| Windows Active Directory | Supported | Available with both Classic and Modern versions. |
| Local Authentication | Supported | Local Microix username/password authentication is available. |
| MFA | Supported in Modern | MFA can be performed through email or SMS/text message. |
Organizations using Microix Workflow Modules Modern can use Microsoft Entra ID as an authentication option.
This provides an alternative for organizations that use Microsoft Entra for identity management but does not mean that Microix provides general-purpose SAML 2.0, OIDC, or SCIM integration with third-party identity providers.
For assistance configuring Windows Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID, local authentication, or MFA, please contact Microix Support and provide your Microix Workflow Modules version and authentication requirements.
