SAML
CloudCannon is set up as a Service Provider (SP) to allow Single Sign On (SSO) for your organisation. To use this feature you must already have your own Identity Provider (IdP).
Configuring SAML
SAML can be a tricky thing to configure with only one end of debugging. If you would prefer manual assistance with setting up, please contact support.
To configure SAML with your IdP you will need the following details:
- SAML 2.0 Endpoint (HTTP)
- Issuer
- X.509 Certificate
The issuer is configurable to allow multiple organisations from the same IdP. It must start with
cloudcannon.com/. Leaving this blank will configure it ascloudcannon.com.
To add these details:
- Go to Organisation Settings / SAML
- Fill in all of the fields available and submit the form
Once configured you will get a screen defining any information you will need. If you require more information than displayed please contact support.
