Starting Studio
Studio provides access to TDV and its resources. When you start Studio, you need to know the TDV Server instance to which you want to connect, the domain, and the port ID. For details, see the TDV Installation and Upgrade Guide or the TDV Getting Started Guide.
To start Studio
1. Select Start > All Programs > TIBCO > Studio <ver> > Start Studio <ver> from the Windows desktop. This command opens the Studio sign-in window.
2. Enter your user credentials and information for the TDV to which you are connecting. For details, see the TDV Installation and Upgrade Guide or the TDV Getting Started Guide.
If Kerberos Single Sign-On has been enabled for your network, the SSO check box appears and you can check it to use your Windows sign-in to connect with the TDV Server.
If an OAuth 2.0 domain has been set up in Web Manager and access tools privileges given, then you can login to TDV Studio by choosing the domain name from the drop down or by entering the name in the Domain field. You will not need to provide username and password while using the OAuth 2.0 domain.
Notes:
You need to be actively logged into your IDP account, before attempting to login to any of the TDV client tools using the OAuth2 domain. If not, you will be redirected to your IDP login page. Once logged in, click on the Oauth2 domain in TDV Studio, Web Manager or Web UI to successfully login to the TDV client.
In order to allow access to Studio, the TDV Studio url must be added to the Redirect URIs list in your Identity Provider. Using the following hostname based url is the preferred method:
 
http://xyz.com/oauth2studiocallback
https://xyz.com/oauth2studiocallback
 
You may also add an IP based or localhost based url in the Redirect URI list as given below:
 
http://1.1.1.1:9400/oauth2studiocallback
https://1.1.1.1:9402/oauth2studiocallback
http://localhost:9400/oauth2studiocallback
https://localhost:9402/oauth2studiocallback
However, it is important to note that this is not a preferred approach as:
localhost references are not host specific
IP addresses are not going to work in deployment environments where server IP addresses are not statically assigned (For example, in the cloud deployments).
3. Click Connect.
4. Click OK.
Studio opens on the Modeler tab (top tab along the left edge of the window.
