| 5 | +# Configuring SiteMinder as an Identity Provider |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Most options are the default values. These are the most important configuration parameters you will need: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +* __EntityID:__ `urn:auth0:@@account.tenant@@` |
| 10 | +* __Assertion Consumer Service URL:__ `https://@@account.namespace@@/login/callback` |
| 11 | +* __Logout URL:__ `https://@@account.namespace@@/logout` |
| 12 | +* __HTTP-Redirect__ binding for SAML Request |
| 13 | +* __HTTP-POST__ binding for SAML Response |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +The instructions below will guide you into where these values need to be entered in SiteMinder. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +###1. Open the SAML Service Provider Dialog |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Provide an appropriate name for the Auth0 connection: |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +We suggest using: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +* __Name:__ `@@account.tenant@@` |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +###2. Defining NameID |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +You can define many ways of generating a `NameIdentifier` for users authenticating with SiteMinder. Typically you will map this value to one of the user properties in the User Directory as `uid` in the example blow: |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +###3. Configure the Service Provider General SAML properties |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +Use the following values for this configuration screen: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +* __SP ID:__ `urn:auth0:@@account.tenant@@` |
| 38 | +* __SAML Version:__ `2.0` |
| 39 | +* __Skew Time:__ `30 seconds` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +###4. Configure the Assertion Consumer Service URL |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +The __Assertion Consumer Service URL__ is the location where SiteMinder will POST back the SAML Token. This Service Provider (@@account.tenant@@) only supports the `HTTP-POST` binding for SAML Responses. Use these values: |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +* __Assertion Consumer Service:__ `https://@@account.namespace@@/login/callback` |
| 48 | +* __HTTP-Post__: `checked` |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +###5. Configure additional user properties to send in the token |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +Add any other properties you wish to share about the authenticated user to this Service Provider. Common values are: `name`, `lastname`, `e-mail address`, etc. This Service Provider will use the `NameIdentifier` defined in step 2 as a unique handle of the user. These attributes will be treated as reference information: |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +###6. Enter the Single Sign Out URL |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +* __SLO Location URL:__ `https://@@account.namespace@@/logout` |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +###7. Optional Assertion Encryption |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +The Service Provider supports encryption of Assertions. If this option is used, __[download the SP public key certificate]()__ and add it to the __Policy Server Keystore__. |
