Connected experience and operations control

Connected experience enables single sign-on for supported AVEVA Operations Control products installed on the node. To use connected experience, you must have an CONNECT account with a valid Operations Control subscription and appropriate user management permissions. Products such as Batch Management and Recipe Management do not currently support this mode. Licenses must be installed and activated. For a list of supported products, see Get Started with AVEVA Operations Control.

• Unified User Management: Selecting the Connected Experience option enables all Operations Control products on the node to require log in authentication with CONNECT. CONNECT-based authorization is the only security mode available under connected experience.

• Compatibility across nodes: Connected experience must be enabled on all nodes in your system. Applications previously build on nodes not enabled for connected experience must be reconfigured to function in the connected experience environment.

You can disable the connected experience at any time, but if you do, connected experience must be disabled on all nodes in your system. If connected experience is disabled, any applications that were built under connected experience must be reconfigured to function without connected experience, including both authentication methods and product licensing.
