Configure SAML with Okta
In this quick tutorial, we will show how to properly configure Okta SAML for Thinfinity® Workspace.
- Navigate to your Okta space, go to the Applications tab, and create a new application using the “Create New App” button
- Chose “SAML 2.0” as the Authentication Method
- Assign a name to the application
- Configure the “Single sign-on URL” and “Audience URI”
The “Single Sign-on URL” address should be the following : https://[MyThinfinityWebSite]/SAMLAssertionConsumerService
The Audience URI should be the URI used to connect to Thinfinity® Workspace: https://[MyThinfinityWebSite]/
- Choose the Feedback options that applies to your application
- Now that the application is created, it should redirect you to the “Settings” window. Click on “View Setup Instructions” for further information
- In here you will get the “Identity Provider Single Sign-on URL”, the Identity Provider Issuer, and the Certificate provided by Okta
- Now, open the Thinfinity® Configuration Manager, navigate to the “Authentication” tab, press the “Add” option and click on “SAML”:
- In here, you will have to add the different values provided by Okta in order to enable SAML:
Service Identifier = Audience URI (SP Entity ID)
Service Certificate File = Your certificate’s file.
Service Certificate Password = Your certificate’s password.
Identificacion Entity ID = Identity Provider Issuer
Single Sign-On Service URL = Identity Provider Single Sign-On URL
Sign-Out URL = This value is optional.
Partner Certificate File = X.509 Certificate provided by Okta.
Below you’ll find an example on how it should look like:
After you finish adding all those values, press “Ok”.
- Click on the Mappings tab. You can add the email address of the Okta user you want to validate under the Authentication ID Mask section, by pressing Add. Then you can add the Active Directory User on the Associated Permissions section, also by pressing Add:
- After you add the appropriate mappings, click on the Apply button.
- Navigate to the Thinfinity® Workspace landing page, and you should see the Sign in with Okta SAML option listed as an Authentication Method:
