[Tips & Tricks] How to enable SAML-based SSO for ADSelfService Plus using OneLogin?

Last week we saw how ADSelfService Plus facilitated SSO for its web console through Okta . This week let’s learn how to set up one click access to ADSelfService Plus’ console through OneLogin.

If SSO is enabled, whenever a user attempts to log on to ADSelfService Plus’ web console, OneLogin will authenticate the request and grant access to the ADSelfService Plus portal. When a user is already logged in to OneLogin and tries to access ADSelfService Plus, the user will be granted access automatically.

Prerequisite

If you do not find ADSelfService Plus in OneLogin's list of supported applications, follow these steps to add it to the list.

Log in to your OneLogin account with admin credentials and navigate to ADSelfService Plus from the list of applications supported. Either download the Metadata in XML format, or get the required data by copying the Issuer URL/Entity ID, IdP Login URL, IdP Logout URL, and the X.509-certificate. 

Configuration steps in ADSelfService Plus

1.      Log in to the ADSelfService Plus web console with admin credentials.

1.      Select Upload Metadata File if you have downloaded the metadata file.

§  Click Browse to upload the metadata file downloaded from OneLogin.
