Role Required: SDAdmin
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an easier alternative to conventional sign-in methods already available for online services. Users no longer have to provide passwords specific to each service they access. AssetExplorer application supports SAML 2.0, which can be configured from Admin > Organizational Details > SAML Single Sign-On.
SAML exchanges authentication and authorization data between two entities, namely an Identity Provider (IdP) and a Service Provider (SP). Here AssetExplorer acts as the SP and upon integration, users can directly log in to the application from the IdP without providing any login credentials.
For example, you can set up Active Directory Federation Service (ADFS) as the IdP to allow your users to log in to AssetExplorer using their Active Directory credentials.
The following screenshot shows how a user logs in to an application configured with SAML.
