Enable SAML

This topic describes how to configure SAML identity providers for Proficy Authentication.

You should enable SAML prior to adding SAML IDP accounts in Proficy Authentication. To enable SAML, you will need to download the Proficy Authentication service provider's metadata file.

1. Visit https://enter FQDN of the machine where Proficy Authentication is installed/uaa/saml/metadata to download the saml-sp.xml file.
2. To configure any SAML identity provider, gather information from the downloaded saml-sp.xml file.
3. Generate a metadata XML file from the configured identity providers, and use the file to add a SAML IDP account in Proficy Authentication.

Refer to the following examples on how to set up SAML identity providers for Proficy Authentication:

• Configure Okta as SAML IDP
• Configure Azure AD as SAML IDP
