Tutorial: Azure Active Directory single sign-on (SSO) integration with EZOfficeInventory

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate EZOfficeInventory with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate EZOfficeInventory with Azure AD, you can:

• Control in Azure AD who has access to EZOfficeInventory.
• Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to EZOfficeInventory with their Azure AD accounts.
• Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.

Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

• An Azure AD subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
• EZOfficeInventory single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD SSO in a test environment.

• EZOfficeInventory supports SP initiated SSO.
• EZOfficeInventory supports Just In Time user provisioning.

Note

Identifier of this application is a fixed string value so only one instance can be configured in one tenant.

Configure and test Azure AD SSO for EZOfficeInventory

Configure and test Azure AD SSO with EZOfficeInventory using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between an Azure AD user and the related user in EZOfficeInventory.

To configure and test Azure AD SSO with EZOfficeInventory, perform the following steps:

1. Configure Azure AD SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
   1. Create an Azure AD test user - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
   2. Assign the Azure AD test user - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
2. Configure EZOfficeInventory SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
   1. Create EZOfficeInventory test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in EZOfficeInventory that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Configure Azure AD SSO

Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.

1. In the Azure portal, on the EZOfficeInventory application integration page, find the Manage section and select single sign-on.

2. On the Select a single sign-on method page, select SAML.

5. EZOfficeInventory application expects the SAML assertions in a specific format, which requires you to add custom attribute mappings to your SAML token attributes configuration. The following screenshot shows the list of default attributes.

   

6. In addition to above, EZOfficeInventory application expects few more attributes to be passed back in SAML response which are shown below. These attributes are also pre populated but you can review them as per your requirement.

   Name	Source Attribute
   first_name	user.givenname
   last_name	user.surname
   email	user.mail

7. On the Set up single sign-on with SAML page, in the SAML Signing Certificate section, find Certificate (Base64) and select Download to download the certificate and save it on your computer.
