Enabling an External Sign-up Form for Public Marketplace

 

If you want to configure your Public Marketplace to redirect a user to an external sign-up form with a customized onboarding process, follow these steps:

• Enable the Identity Service.

• Go to the External Sign-up IDP Service tab in your CloudBlue Commerce classic panel.

  

• Click the brand for which you plan to set up the integration.

• Select the External signup IDP service enabled box.

  

   

  The external sign-up form acts as an external IDP for CloudBlue Commerce IDP and it must be configured to obtain the following parameters for single sign-on authentication to work:

  Parameter	Value Example
  Redirect URL with SAML response	http://signup-form.url
  Certificate (Base64)	-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- <...> .... -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  External IDP username SAML assertion attribute	Any SAML assertion attribute that designates the user log-in name in CloudBlue Commerce

   

  You can use CloudBlue REST API methods to create an account and staff-member.

   

  

   

  Note: If your external sign-up form is not configured to send SAML response back, the user will be redirected back to Marketplace to enter their login details.

• Fill in the required fields and click Submit.

Verify you are redirected to the external sign up form in the following scenarios:

1. Go to Public Marketplace, click Sign In in the top-right corner, and click Sign Up. You will be redirected to your external sign-up form.

   

2. Go to Public Marketplace, add a product to the cart, follow the wizard, and select the items that you want to buy. When you click Checkout, you will be redirected to your external sign-up form.
