How to create an Authentication Provider for Office365

To allow users authenticated using Ubisecure SSO to log into Office365 applications, or any Azure AD connected application.

Step-by-step guide

To configure an IDP for Office365, complete the following steps:

1. Create an Agent

   1. SAML Application

      • Use compatibility flags: AuthnRequestValidate AssertionSignCertificate HttpPostResponseSign
        

        
        
        

2. Create a new Authorization Policy

   1. Create Policy

      Open

      

   2. Press OK

   3. Select the Attributes tab, select Add...

   4. Choose a group, such as eIDMUser group from the eIDM Groups site. This group contains all registered CustomerID users.

      Open

      

   5. Add the following attributes

      • ${nameID.format('persistent').value('ImmutableID')}

      • ${attribute.nameFormat(null).name('IDPEmail').values('Mail')}

      • ${issuer.value('Issuer')}

   6. Attach policy to agent

      Open

      

   7. Complete the rest of the appropriate settings for access control

3. Activate the agent in Azure AD

   1. Set Azure AD domain to Federated mode with Ubisecure SSO as IDP

      1. Use the model powershell script to activate using the Azure APIs

   2. remove certificates from metadata when activating
