SSO - AuthGroovy parameters

[sushmita]

Hello,

We are attempting to set up AzureAD SSO on v2021, with a Single IDP set up. We are referencing the documentation here - https://saviynt.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/43000661162-saml-metadata-files#SAMLMetadat....

What should the value be for this parameter:grails.plugin.springsecurity.saml.metadata.providers

According to the documentation, the example given is : [<IdP_alias_name>: '/saviynt_shared/security/SAML/idp.xml']

What does <IdP_alias_name> mean in this case?

It will be IDP name like Ping / Okta etc

grails.plugin.springsecurity.saml.metadata.providers

Specify the IdP’s alias and metadata file name. From Release v2021.0 onwards, enter the location in the following format: [<IdP_alias_name>: '/saviynt_shared/security/SAML/idp.xml'] Example: ping: '/saviynt_shared/security/SAML/ping_idp.xml' Where: IdP_alias_name: For multiple IdPs configuration, specify the alias that is displayed in the drop-down list after you login to EIC. /saviynt_shared/security/SAML/: This is the default location of your IdP IdP metadata XML file file in EIC. idp.xml: Specify the file name for the IdP metadata XML file

Thanks, I did see this part too - but is the idp_alias_name value referenced from somewhere else or is it just a random value we enter in this file? We're not doing multiple IDP configs here.

• IdP_alias_name: For multiple IdPs configuration, specify the alias that is displayed in the drop-down list after you login to EIC.

Its just alias & not referenced elsewhere like SSL certificate alias

Okay, I'll try this out and respond here.
