By-pass the sign-in page (jump to Entra ID directly)

[nicolas.crozet]

Hello,

We use a Privileged Remote Access (PRA) management solution to comply with some standards.

With such solution, we do not access the https://vdc-m365-emea.veeamdatacloud.com webpage directly from a browser, but from the PRA tool.
This tool is then supposed to automatically provide credentials to the webpage to log the admin operator with credentials assigned to him, which he doesn't know.

When accessing VDC through https://vdc-m365-emea.veeamdatacloud.com, we do not land directly on the Entra ID authentication webform but on this Veeam static page on which we can only click on the "Sign in with Microsoft" button to then sign-in with Entra ID credentials.
The issue is that the PRA tool cannot "click" on this button before automatically provide credentials.

Would it be possible to be able to bypass this static page and to get a link to land directly on the Entra ID authentication webpage?
Maybe an option in the VDC customer tenant on which it would be possible to generate such link?

Many thanks for your feedback, do not hesitate to reach out if you need further details on this request.

Kind regards,
Nicolas

Hi,

Can you please provide more details on this PRA solution, and I'll check internally. At first glance I don't believe it is currently supported but more details would certainly validate what is currently possible.

Hello Michael,

Thanks for the reply.

The solution is Privileged Remote Access from BeyondTrust.
Goal is for operators to access tools admin console without knowing the credentials of the account used to perform admin tasks: PRA performs the login on behalf of the user by doing an "auto-type"-like.

PRA knows how to fill an Entra ID authentication page but cannot "click" on the VDC "Sign in with Microsoft" button before this.

Do you need any additional info?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
Nicolas
