Single Sign-On

This article will describe the information and steps needed in order to set up Single Sign-On (SSO) Authentication with Bobsled using SAML 2.0.

Single Sign-On lets your users sign in just one time to get access to all your organisation's applications.

High-Level Overview:

• Supported Providers
• Configuring Single Sign-On
• Setting up Users for Single Sign-On

Supported Providers 

Below is a list of SAML Single Sign-On providers we currently integrate with. 

• Okta Single Sign-On
• Microsoft Azure Active Directory
• Google Authentication

If your provider of choice is not listed below but supports SAML 2.0, please contact us and we can work with you on configuration.

Configuring Single Sign-On 

We will provide the following information for your configuration:

• Bobsled Entity ID: The URI that identifies Bobsled to your idP. 
  The Bobsled Entity ID will be the same as your environment URL i.e. {environment_name}.bobsled-cloud.com

To set up SSO, we will need the following information from your organisation:

• idP Entity ID: The URI that identifies your identity provider
• idP SAML SSO URL: The URL of your identity provider’s sign-in page that your users visit
• idP public key certificate: The public certificate used to validate tokens signed by your identity provider
  
  

With the following information, please get in touch with your account representative or raise a ticket here to configure SSO.

Setting Up Users for Single Sign-On

To grant your users access to log in using your SSO provider, you will need to create a user by inviting and assigning a role to them in Bobsled.
