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

Scenario description

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

• Knowledge Anywhere LMS supports SP initiated SSO.
• Knowledge Anywhere LMS supports Just In Time user provisioning.

Configure and test Azure AD SSO for Knowledge Anywhere LMS

Configure and test Azure AD SSO with Knowledge Anywhere LMS 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 Knowledge Anywhere LMS.

To configure and test Azure AD SSO with Knowledge Anywhere LMS, 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 Knowledge Anywhere LMS SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
   1. Create Knowledge Anywhere LMS test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Knowledge Anywhere LMS 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 Knowledge Anywhere LMS application integration page, find the Manage section and select Single sign-on.
