The login page allows portal users to authenticate on the portal by entering their login credentials or by authenticating via an alternative method. The main application and the portal have separate login pages. These pages share a number of settings.
For example, the login page URL for an application “https://mysite.bpmonline.com” will be as follows:
-
Bpm’online application: https://mysite.bpmonline.com/Login/NuiLogin.aspx
-
Portal: https://mysite.bpmonline.com/login/SSPLogin.aspx
By default, https://mysite.bpmonline.com is the main application login page. However, you can change it to be the portal login page. Read more >>>
We recommend adding the following assets to the portal login page:
-
Corporate logo – you can add different logo images for the main application and portal login pages. Read more >>>
-
Support phone numbers and links to any additional resources, which are displayed both on the main application and portal login pages. Read more >>>

•Change the default login page
•Set up contact options and links
If you use the portal to actively communicate with customers, you can set the portal login page as the default one. This is most useful if self-registration is the primary method of user authentication on your portal.
