SAML / SSO

Netography Fusion supports single sign-on (SSO) to any SAML 2.0 identity provider.

Prerequisites

The following conditions must be met to successfully configure SSO with Netography:

• Identity Provider Metadata FileYou must have an existing identity provider service that supports SAML 2.0 and provides an Identity Provider Metadata File. This file is required to be uploaded to Netography as part of the SSO/SAML integration.
• Netography Administrator accountWhen your original Netography account was created, an initial administrator user was also created. You may have also created additional users in this account. You are required to maintain at least 1 admin level user in the Netography account, which can be used as a fail-safe in case the SSO integration fails. This administrator access is required to configure/edit the SSO settings.  The login for these users will remain the default Netography login page, whereas once SSO is configured, you will receive a custom login URL for your SSO-based users.

Identity Provider Configuration

There are many identity providers on the market, and nearly all of them differ in how they configure SAML SSO integrations. Some example walkthroughs are available below, but consult your identity provider documentation for the most up-to-date information.
