Setting Up Integration with Azure AD Using SAML

Note: The IDP version 1.2-71 is required for integration with Azure AD.

Step 1. Choose a Brand

1. Enable the Identity Service.
2. Select an existing brand for which you plan to set up the integration, for example, "mybrand.com".

Step 2. Create an Enterprise Application in Azure AD

1. Go to Microsoft Azure, select your tenant and open Azure Active Directory from the menu on the left.
2. Select Enterprise applications and click New application.
3. Choose Non-gallery application and specify its name as "oss-brand-<brand domain>".
4. Select Users and Groups, click Add user and add the "CanSSOtoCBC" group to allow Azure AD users of this group to log in to CloudBlue Commerce.
5. Select Single Sign-On, then choose the SAML SSO method. In the Basic SAML Configuration tile, enter the following values:
   
   

   Parameter	Value
   Identifier (Entity ID)	https://<brand_domain>/auth/realms/sr<brand_id>
   Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL)	https://<brand_domain>/auth/realms/sr<brand_id>/broker/saml/endpoint
   Sign on URL	https://<brand_domain>/auth/realms/sr<brand_id>/broker/saml/endpoint

   
   Where: <brand_id> is the brand identifier in CloudBlue Commerce.

6. Go to the SAML Signing Certificate tile and download the Base 64 SAML Signing Certificate.
7. Go to the Set up oss-brand-mybrand.com tile and copy the login URL value from it.

   
   To sum up, you must obtain the following parameters from Azure AD:

   Parameter	Value example
   Login URL	https://login.microsoftonline.com/9a3c0433-26a5-4deb-b203-591c46652afc/saml2
   Certificate (Base64)	file: oss-mybrand.com.cer

Step 3. Configure External IDP Service

1. Log in to the PCP, then go to Services > Identity Service.
2. In the External IDP Service tab, select a brand.

3. Check the External IDP service enabled checkbox and specify these parameters:

   Parameter	Example	Notes
   External IDP Login URL	https://login.microsoftonline.com/9a3c0433-26a5-4deb-b203-591c46652afc/saml2	The Login URL value from Step 2
   External IDP Logout URL	https://login.microsoftonline.com/9a3c0433-26a5-4deb-b203-591c46652afc/saml2	The Login URL value from Step 2
   External IDP display name	Azure AD	A human-readable name
   External IDP certificate in PEM format	-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIDjjCCAnYCCQCErQYi+gB/0jANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADCBiDELMAkGA1UEBhMC .... -----END CERTIFICATE-----	The Certificate (Base64) value from Step 2
   External IDP username SAML assertion attribute	http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress	The SAML assertion attribute that designates the user log-in name in OSS

Step 4. Create a User

Now, you can create a user in CloudBlue Commerce. The user log-in name must be equal to the value of the SAML assertion attribute set for External IDP username SAML assertion attribute at the previous step.

Important: Users are not created automatically, they must be created beforehand in CloudBlue Commerce.
