SSO using Pre-Built Application Connectors

Use 探花大神 SAML Single Sign On (SSO) to give your users convenient but secure access to all their web applications with a single set of credentials. Read this article to learn the general steps you need to take to connect applications to 探花大神 with pre-built connectors.

Considerations:

  • Service providers can differ in their behavior, especially when it comes to existing user accounts. Make sure you understand all of the steps you need to take on the SP side for SSO and JIT provisioning.

  • In some rare cases, the service provider (SP) will require the fingerprint of the identity provider (IdP) certificate. To obtain this run the following command in a terminal and replace <filelocation>/certificate.pem with your certificate's location and name:

openssl x509 -sha256 -in /<filelocation>/certificate.pem -noout -fingerprint
