Connecting SAML Identity Provider
SELECT's SAML integration is an add-on feature. Please contact SELECT to determine your eligibility and receive a quote.
To manage access and authentication to SELECT using a SAML identity provider (IdP), please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Register SELECT with IdP
Navigate to Settings → Authentication. Click Add SSO and then select SAML in the dropdown.
The SAML Connection Details section will display the values ACS URL and entity ID. Please enter both at your IdP. The specific methods for doing so will vary, so please see your IdP's documentation if you need additional assistance.
Step 2: Add SSO Connection in SELECT
Once your IdP is configured, complete the form using the following values obtained from the SAML IdP:
- Sign in URL
- X.509 signing certificate (in either PEM or CER format). You will need to convert the contents of the file to Base64 before entering it, which can be done using an online tool or with the following Bash command:
cat signing-cert.crt | base64
Click Add SSO to complete. You should then see your newly created SSO connection under Authentication Methods.
Creating an SSO connection will automatically disable manual user invitations.
