Hostname & HTTPS

Give users a friendly, secure URL by adding an HTTPS binding for your host name, so they can reach SoftwareCentral from their own browsers.

1 Add the HTTPS binding

Add a binding for your desired host name. The host name should also be configured in your DNS.

  1. In IIS Manager, on the SoftwareCentral site, click the Add… button and add a binding for your host name.
  2. Choose a certificate that is trusted by your clients and click OK.

IIS Add Site Binding — https + a trusted certificate.
Optional port 80 binding You may also add a binding on port 80 for your SoftwareCentral host name, so users who do not type https:// can still find SoftwareCentral. A rewrite rule redirects them to the https site.

2 Azure / Entra Update the app registration

Once you have added a host name, go to the app registration in the Azure portal and add the new host name to the Redirect URIs.

You should also add the front-channel logout URL. This is required if you want to use single sign-out. The sign-out URL is your host name followed by /logout.
