Microsoft Azure Active Directory / Microsoft Entra (SAML2 SSO)

Learn how to finish the configuration in just a few steps.

Step 1: Create a new enterprise application

  1. Go to Azure Active Directory and select Enterprise Applications (or use this link)
  2. Choose New application
    enterprise-applications
  3. Choose Create your own application
    Browse-azure-ad-gallery-1
  4. Set a name for the application and select Integrate any other application you don't find in the gallery (Non-gallery)
    create-own-application-2
  5. In your newly created application, link your users and groups to the Flexopus application on the Users and groups page.

Step 2: Set up SSO login

  1. Choose SAML on the Signle sign-on page.
    test-single-sign-on-3
  2. Edit the Basic SAML Configuration.
    basis-saml-configuarion-1-4
  3. You need to log in at Flexopus. Go to Dashboard > Settings > Authentication. Create a SAML2 Provider and copy the Entity ID and the Reply URL from Flexopus to the AAD. You can find both URLs in the newly created Flexopus SAML2 integration.
    Theoretically, you can connect multiple SAML2 IdPs with Flexopus, for this reason we have a prefix in the URL for each URL separately.

 

TIP FOR THE SIGN ON URL (OPTIONAL):
If you also want to make the application available to colleagues through https://myapps.microsoft.com, then you must be sure to complete the Sign On URL. In addition, you must allow the setting "Visible to users" in the Enterprise Application Properties. We recommend this setting. 

4. Edit User Attributes & Claims
