This article explains how to enhance Josys platform security with a step-by-step guide on configuring SAML authentication using trusted Identity Providers.
Note: Single Sign-On (SSO) can be configured only for IdPs supported by Josys. Currently, Josys supports Okta and OneLogin.
Prerequisites
Ensure you have administrative access to both Josys and your chosen Identity Provider (IdP).
Follow the steps below to enable SAML (Single Sign-On) authentication:
Step 1: Navigate to the Security tab on the side panel and select SSO (SAML authentication).
Step 2: To begin the configuration, click on Configure SSO.
Step 3: Copy the 'ACS URL' and 'Entity ID' from Josys
Step 4: Select your IdP from the IdP drop-down list.
Step 5: Follow the steps below to configure your IdP.
- If you're using Okta: Okta Integration for SAML Authentication
- If you're using OneLogin: OneLogin Integration for SAML Authentication
- If you're using Entra(Azure AD): Entra ID Integration for SAML Authentication
Step 6: After successful configuration and testing, click Enable SSO to activate the SSO settings for your users.
