Custom features

These features are available for custom RD Web Access interfaces built by Custom Interface Solutions. They aren't included in Quick Themes, but you can order them for your theme (see the FAQ).

The list shows common features. We can also build a feature to match your requirements.

IAdmin#

IAdmin (Interface Admin Management Module) is a free module that ships with your custom interface package. It runs as a separate website, and you use it to manage the custom features below. For example, you can add, edit, delete and sort announcements or web links.

• Some features, such as Password reset by admin and Create Active Directory users, are IAdmin modules.
• You can manage the email templates sent when a password is reset or a user is created.
• Web Encrypt/Decrypt encrypts the SQL and LDAP connection strings in your web.config file.
• On request, we can add more CMS modules, such as managing logos, promo banners or other branding elements (logo, background image).

Content for users#

Announcements#

Post important messages, news and announcements on the login page and the after-login pages. In IAdmin you can post, edit, delete, activate and deactivate announcements, and target them by AD group or OU.

Web links#

Show important links and resources (company links, bookmarks, useful resources) on the login page and the after-login pages. In IAdmin you can post, edit, delete, activate and deactivate links, and target them by AD group or OU.

Documents#

Upload documents for users to read or download, such as training materials, user guides, reports and company handbooks. Any file type works, for example PDF, Word or text files. You can add, edit, delete and sort documents at any time and share them by AD group.

Downloads#

Offer downloadable tools inside RD Web Access, such as corporate tools, utilities, software patches or desktop clients. Upload any file type (executables, ZIP files and others) from IAdmin and share them by AD group.

Videos#

Show videos, such as training videos, in RD Web Access by AD user or group. You can use YouTube or other video streaming platforms, and add, edit, delete and sort videos from IAdmin.

RSS widget#

Show an RSS news feed on the login page, the after-login page or both. You set the feed URL in IAdmin.

Social widgets#

Add your Twitter feed or Facebook widget to the RD Web page. You manage the widget settings in IAdmin.

Other widgets#

We can add other widgets to the login and after-login pages to suit your portal.

Sign-in and passwords#

Forgot password#

Adds a forgot password option to the RD Web Access login page, so users can reset their own password. It works like the forgot password flow on most websites.

Password reset by admin#

An IAdmin module that lets an administrator reset a user's password in one step and send the new password by email. The new password is checked against your AD password policy. Administrators don't need to sign in to an Active Directory server to do this.

Custom message for locked users#

RD Web Access doesn't tell users when their account is locked. This module shows a specific message instead, for example "Your account has been locked. Contact your administrator."

Login widget#

Turns the RD Web Access login into a small widget that you can place on your website or in other web apps. It works like the RD Web Access login, with a simpler look.

OWA integration#

Single sign-on from RD Web Access to OWA (Outlook on the web). Users who are signed in to RD Web Access don't need to sign in again to OWA. We can also set up single sign-on for other email systems.

Active Directory#

Create Active Directory users#

An IAdmin module that lets administrators create Active Directory users from the web interface. You can enter user details such as company, email, title and phone, and add the user to an OU and groups. The new user receives an email with their username and a randomly generated password.

Active Directory information#

Shows details about the signed-in user from Active Directory, such as last sign-in time, email, phone, title, department and company. You can show other AD attributes too.
