The following prerequisites apply: 

• Identity Manager is installed, see Deploy Smart ID (for legacy systems, see Install Identity Manager).

• Smart ID Messaging (Hermod) is installed locally or running as a service. See Deploy Smart ID.

• Server certificates to Identity Manager and Hermod must be available, to set up an https connection. 

Do settings in Smart ID Messaging to connect to Identity Manager over https.

See the instructions here: Integrate Smart ID Messaging with other Smart ID components.

1. Log in to Identity Manager Admin.

To set up the connection to Smart ID Messaging in Identity Manager:

   2. Click Save+Edit. 
      The Messaging Server panel is shown.

   3. In URL, enter the URL of the messaging server ending with command. The example assumes it is deployed as the web app Hermod. 

      1. Set the scheme to HTTPS and the port to the port number used by Hermod for callbacks. See Add API user and callback URL in Hermod

         Example: URL to Hermod web app

         https://<my-hermod-server>:<port>/hermod/rest/command
