How to configure Cognos to use single sign on (Other prerequisites are missing like adding namespace linked to AD and installing Gateway on IIS ):
I was asked to make Cognos security use the user credential from windows without need to retype it which known as single signon, First I thought it was was not applicable till I found so I will share it with you may it be useful.
It was so simple:
1- Open Cognos configuration.
2- Go to Security -> Authentication
3- Select the configuration resource you use (If you already created security configuration to use active directory for example, if you didn't yet I will cover it later)
4- From top right window select Advanced options from the table and press the button for edit.
5- Press Add then in name write: singleSignOnOption and under value write: IdentityMapping
6- Press Ok, restart the service and congratulations :)
