The Embedded Discovery Service (EDS) is a set of CSS and Javascript files. To install them you'll need to serve these files up via your web server. Refer to your web server documentation if you're unsure how to serve up static documents.

Locate on same domain as SP

Because of browser security, the files need to be located on the same domain as the SP.

Web Server Setup

  1. Download the Embedded Discovery Service Distribution

  2. Unzip the distribution

  3. Copy the Javascript files (idpselect_config.js and idpselect.js, and the CSS (idpselect.css) files in to the location from where your web server is serving static content.

  4. For testing purposes you may chose to copy the index.html file to the same location.

Once complete, open a browser and test to make sure each file is reachable.
