Using Web UI
Overview
The Admin UI provides a user interface to several Domino REST APIs. It thus serves as an example of what a React application using the Domino REST APIs is capable of. It covers schema, scope, and app management. Anything that can be done using the Web UI can also be done using Postman, curl, Swagger UI, or similar tools. There are tutorials to walk you through the same.
Note
The screenshots in this section may vary. The screenshots are based on the latest Domino REST API snapshots. Make sure you're up-to-date.

You'll need the administrator username and password to access the server.
To use a Domino database in Domino REST API, it must be configured for use in the API. Download Demo.nsf from Resources and save it in the Notes data directory. Then login to the Domino REST API Admin UI using the administrator username and password.
Log in options
There are options for logging in to the Domino REST API Admin UI.
Log in with password
This option uses the Domino REST API IdP to log in. You can log in to the Admin UI by entering your administrator username and password in the Username and Password fields, and clicking LOG IN WITH PASSWORD.
Log in with passkey
This option enables users to log in with a passkey that enables signing in to websites without remembering and managing passwords using a biometric sensor, PIN, or pattern. For more information on how to log in with passkey, see Use passkey to log in to Admin UI.
[Preview feature] Log in with DRAPI
Note
If you run into any issues with this preview feature option, clear your browser's local storage (not the cache) for the Admin UI URL. Alternatively, you can open the Admin UI in an incognito window and log in using the Log in with password option.
This option uses the Domino REST API IdP and implements the OAuth process requiring user consent to log in. You can log in to the Admin UI by clicking LOG IN WITH DRAPI. Enter you administrator username and password in the Username and Password fields in the HCL Domino Login page, and then click Login.
[Preview feature] Log in with your external IdP
For preview feature options
If you run into any issues with this preview feature option, clear your browser's local storage (not the cache) for the Admin UI URL. Alternatively, you can open the Admin UI in an incognito window and log in using the Log in with password option.
This option uses your configured external IdP to log in to Domino REST API Admin UI and is only available after performing some configurations. For more information on the needed configurations, see Set up Admin UI external IdP login configuration.
Once configured, a LOG IN WITH {configured IdP name} button is available on the Admin UI login page. You can log in to the Admin UI by clicking LOG IN WITH {configured IdP name}, using your IdP authentication credentials to log in, and following succeeding login instructions.
The following image shows an example of the Admin UI login page when the user configured their own IdP to log in to Admin UI.
