Configuring IT Glue to accept SAML authentication
- From Account > Settings, scroll down to Single Sign On and click Enable SAML SSO.
- Enter the information copied from Passly in the text boxes provided:
Issuer URL:Issuer URL https://(Your On-Demand Tenant)/trust
SSO Endpoint: SAML2.0 Endpoint (HTTP) URL https://(Your On-Demand Tenant)/signin
SSO Logout Endpoint: SLO Endpoint (HTTP) URL https://(Your On-Demand Tenant)/apps
Note: Replace https://(Your On-Demand Tenant) with your actual tenant URL
Fingerprint: SHA Fingerprint
Certificate: X.509 Certificate
- Click Save.
Click Save only if you have Passly ready to go. If you enable SSO prematurely, it will break the sign in experience for all users on your account.
Once you make this change, users will be required to sign in with Passly when visiting your account subdomain (mycompany.itglue.com) if they're not already authenticated.
Common Questions
How does SSO sign me in?
Whenever IT Glue (mycompany.itglue.com) or one of your other apps or sites wants to authenticate you via SSO, they'll redirect you to the authentication domain (Passly). If you are not signed in, you can sign in using your Passly credentials. But if you're already signed in, you won't need to sign in again. You are immediately redirected back to the target site (e.g. IT Glue) with the necessary authentication token. This token is used by the target site's server to verify that you are authenticated with the authentication server.
Signing in to IT Glue using SAML (technical view)
What information do I need to enter if I use a different SAML identity provider?
If you configure your own solution, you will need to enter the following information:
-
Issuer URL - the URL that uniquely identifies your SAML identity provider
-
SSO Endpoint - the SAML login URL of the SAML server
-
SLO Endpoint - a URL where IT Glue can redirect users after they sign out of IT Glue (optional)
-
Fingerprint - the appropriate value based on the information provided by your identity provider
-
Certificate - the authentication certificate issued by your identity provider
When the SSO server is unavailable, how do we access our accounts?
If the SSO server you specified is unavailable for any reason while you're trying to log in, authentication will fail. Send us an email IT Glue directlyfor assistance.
How do we disable SSO for a user?
If a member has left your team, and you’d like to disable their user account, an Admin or Manager will need to delete their account from the Account > Users page in IT Glue. We don't currently support disabling user accounts through the SSO server.
