Installing the Multi-Account Extensions
As mentioned earlier, you will need to install the following multi-account extensions in the Connect Distributor Portal:
-
Generic Seamless Move multi-account extension.
-
A vendor-specific multi-account extension that will be supporting the Seamless Move functionality. This is currently available for:
-
Adobe Cloud: A multi-account extension must be installed to enable the Seamless Move functionality for Adobe Cloud.
-
Microsoft SaaS: In this case, the already existing Microsoft Management Extension will be used.
-
Azure NCE: The already existing Microsoft Management Extension will be used.
-
Installing the Generic Seamless Move Multi-Account Extension
The first step consists of installing the Generic Seamless Move multi-account extension in the Connect distributor portal. Once it is installed, you will be able to configure the key and secret required to communicate with the Seamless Move APS application, which will be in charge of collecting the information gathered by the Generic multi-account extension in Connect to display the Seamless Move functionality in UX1.
Follow these steps to install the Generic Seamless Move multi-account extension in the Connect distributor portal:
-
Go to the Integrations module in the CloudBlue Connect Distributor portal.
-
Click Extensions in the left menu and go to the Installations tab.
-
Click the three dots icon at the top-right corner and then click Redeem activation code.
-
Enter the invitation code that was provided by the Vendor and click Proceed.
-
A dialog box will be displayed informing you about the permissions required by the extension. Click Install to complete the installation.
-
Repeat these steps to install the multi-account extensions for Adobe and Microsoft SaaS if they are not installed yet. As we mentioned earlier, in the case of Microsoft SaaS, the already existing Microsoft Management Extension will be used for Seamless Move.
Installing the Vendor-Specific Multi-Account Extensions
Besides the Generic Seamless Move extension, a vendor-specific multi-account extension must be installed. At the time of writing, the seamless-move functionality is available for Adobe Cloud and Microsoft SaaS, which means that a multi-account extension must be installed for those services.
-
Microsoft SaaS: To enable the seamless move functionality for Microsoft SaaS, the Microsoft Management Extension must be installed. If the extension is not installed yet, you can refer to the Microsoft Management settings documentation.
-
Adobe Cloud: To enable the seamless move functionality for Adobe, you must install the corresponding Adobe multi-account extension in the Connect Distributor portal. To do this, see the following section: Installing the Seamless Move Adobe Cloud Engine extension.
-
Azure NCE: To enable the seamless move functionality for Azure NCE, the Microsoft Management Extension must be installed. If the extension is not installed yet, you can refer to the Microsoft Management settings documentation.
Notes:
- At the moment of writing this document, the Seamless Move functionality is available for Adobe Cloud and Microsoft SaaS only.
- If the extensions are already installed, you can also find them in your account settings (Settings > Seamless Move).
