Logging in with Microsoft Azure MFA

Logging into the Live Platform portal interface is secured using Azure Authentication with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Login can be performed by any M365 user who is configured as a Live Platform operator configured in the Enterprise application for the Live Platform instance of the customer tenant (see Setting up Microsoft Azure Authentication).

Verify with Live Platform Professional Services that you have the required Admin permissions. Access to the Operation Center portal supports Multi-Factor Authentication if Service Provider, Channel and Customer Microsoft 365 tenants are configured for MFA.

To login using Azure authentication:
1. Enter the link for the Portal – DNS or IP address.

2. Click Login To Live.
3. Enter username and password and then click Sign in.

Once successfully logged in, the Live Platform Dashboard is displayed.

After logging out or after the browser is closed, all saved GUI contexts are retrieved the next time the operator logs in. Best practice is to save the workspace you’re currently performing operations in, so re-accessing it is quick and effortless.
