Issue:

Does Autodesk Vault support Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory)?

Solution:

Autodesk Vault Software is not aware of Entra ID in any way. However, there are three authentication methods supported by Autodesk Vault.

  1. Windows Authentication.

  2. Vault Account.

  3. Autodesk ID.


You can assign one or more authentication methods to a user profile. (See Add an Authentication Account to a User Profile).
 

Windows Authentication.

The Windows Authentication method of Autodesk Vault does not support Entra ID. However, Vault does support an on-premise Active directory

Vault Account

The Vault Account authentication method does not support Entra ID.

Autodesk ID

Autodesk ID can be configured to use the Single Sign-on (SSO) authentication method.
SSO supports Microsoft Azure (Entra ID) as an Identity Provider. This enables users to use their company authentication system, instead of a unique Autodesk ID with a different username and password, as credentials for any service or software where Autodesk IDs can be used. This includes Vault Professional.

The following image depicts the three Authentication methods supported by Autodesk Vault Professional. Note: Vault Basic does not support Windows Authentication.
