In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate MyWorkDrive with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate MyWorkDrive with Azure AD, you can:
- Control in Azure AD who has access to MyWorkDrive.
- Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to MyWorkDrive with their Azure AD accounts.
- Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.
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.
- MyWorkDrive single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD SSO in a test environment.
- MyWorkDrive supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
Note
Identifier of this application is a fixed string value so only one instance can be configured in one tenant.
To configure the integration of MyWorkDrive into Azure AD, you need to add MyWorkDrive from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
- Sign in to the Azure portal using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
- On the left navigation pane, select the Azure Active Directory service.
- Navigate to Enterprise Applications and then select All Applications.
- To add new application, select New application.
- In the Add from the gallery section, type MyWorkDrive in the search box.
- Select MyWorkDrive from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
Configure and test Azure AD SSO with MyWorkDrive 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 MyWorkDrive.
To configure and test Azure AD SSO with MyWorkDrive, perform the following steps:
- Configure Azure AD SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
- Create an Azure AD test user - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
- Assign the Azure AD test user - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
- Configure MyWorkDrive SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
- Create MyWorkDrive test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in MyWorkDrive that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
- Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.
Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.
-
In the Azure portal, on the MyWorkDrive application integration page, find the Manage section and select Single sign-on.
-
On the Select a Single sign-on method page, select SAML.
-
On the Set up Single Sign-On with SAML page, click the pencil icon for Basic SAML Configuration to edit the settings.

On the Basic SAML Configuration page, If you wish to configure the application in IDP initiated mode, perform the following step:
In the Reply URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
https://<SERVER.DOMAIN.COM>/SAML/AssertionConsumerService.aspx
-
Click Set additional URLs and perform the following step if you wish to configure the application in SP initiated mode:
In the Sign-on URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
https://<SERVER.DOMAIN.COM>/Account/Login-saml
[!NOTE] These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Reply URL and Sign-On URL. Input your own company's MyWorkDrive Server host name:e.g.
Reply URL:
https://yourserver.yourdomain.com/SAML/AssertionConsumerService.aspx
Sign-on URL:
https://yourserver.yourdomain.com/Account/Login-saml
Contact MyWorkDrive support team if you are unsure how to setup your own host name and TLS/SSL certificate for these values.

To automate the configuration within MyWorkDrive, you need to install My Apps Secure Sign-in browser extension by clicking Install the extension.
-
After adding extension to the browser, click on Setup MyWorkDrive will direct you to the MyWorkDrive application. From there, provide the admin credentials to sign into MyWorkDrive. The browser extension will automatically configure the application for you and automate steps 3-4.
-
If you want to setup MyWorkDrive manually, In a different web browser window, sign in to MyWorkDrive as a Security Administrator.
-
On the MyWorkDrive Server in the admin panel, click on ENTERPRISE and perform the following steps:
a. Enable SAML/ADFS SSO.
b. Select SAML - Azure AD.
c. In the Azure App Federation Metadata Url textbox, paste the value of App Federation Metadata Url which you have copied from the Azure portal.
d. Click Save.
[!NOTE] For additional information review the MyWorkDrive Azure AD support article.
In this section, you create a user called Britta Simon in MyWorkDrive. Work with MyWorkDrive support team to add the users in the MyWorkDrive platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.
In this section, you test your Azure AD single sign-on configuration with following options.
-
Click on Test this application in Azure portal. This will redirect to MyWorkDrive Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.
-
Go to MyWorkDrive Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.
- Click on Test this application in Azure portal and you should be automatically signed in to the MyWorkDrive for which you set up the SSO.
You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the MyWorkDrive tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the MyWorkDrive for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
Once you configure MyWorkDrive you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Cloud App Security.
