SSO With Microsoft Azure AD

Overview

This step-by-step guide explains how to set up Single Sign-On in AutoRABIT with Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AD) as your SAML 2.0 Identity Provider (IdP).

When you integrate AutoRABIT with Azure AD, you can:

  1. Control in Azure AD who has access to AutoRABIT

  2. Enable your users to be automatically signed in to AutoRABIT with their Azure AD accounts

  3. Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.

Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

  1. An Azure AD subscription.

  2. You will need to be an Administrator in AutoRABIT and in Azure AD to configure SSO.

  3. Add AutoRABIT as a non-gallery application.

In Azure AD

  1. Sign in to your Azure management portal.

  2. Select the Azure Active Directory service from the left sidebar. Click Enterprise applications.

  3. Select All applications from the Application type dropdown.

  4. Click New application and, on the Add from the gallery section, type autorabit, and press Enter.

  5. From the results, select AutoRABIT, change the name if you wish, and click Add.

  6. Go to the AutoRABIT app page and click on Single sign-on.

  7. On the Select a Single sign-on method dialog, select SAML mode to enable single sign-on.

  8. On the Set up Single Sign-On with SAML page, click the Edit (pencil) icon for Basic SAML Configuration to edit the settings.

  9. On the Basic SAML Configuration section, perform the following steps:

    • In the Identifier (Entity ID) field, enter the URL in the following format: <instanceURL>/saml/metadata. For example- If your instance is https://xyz.com, then the Identifier (Entity ID) would be: https://xyz.com/saml/metadata

    • In the Reply URL field, enter the URL in the following format: <instanceURL>/saml/SSO. For example- If your instance is https://xyz.com, then the payload URL would be: https://xyz.com/saml/SSO

    • In the Sign on URL field type the secure URL of your domain (i.e. starting with https://). For example- https://xyz.com

  10. On the Set up Single Sign-On with SAML page, in the SAML Signing Certificate section, find Federation Metadata XML and select Download to download the certificate and save it on your computer.

In AutoRABIT

Now that your Azure SSO implementation is set up, you’ll need to follow just a few more steps to configure SSO in your AutoRABIT account.

  1. Login to your AutoRABIT account.

  2. Hover your mouse over the Admin module and select the option: My Account

  3. On the My Account page, go to the 3rd section: SSO Configuration

  4. Browse for the metadata XML file you downloaded in your local machine and upload them.

  5. Sign out from your AutoRABIT account.

  6. Go to the AutoRABIT login page. This time you need to log in via SSO, so, therefore, click on the option: Single Sign On

  7. Enter the domain name and click on Go.
