This guide covers how to configure a custom SAML app in Azure AD for Single Sign-On use with ResourceXpress.
An Azure AD Premium subscription is required for this feature.
Create a SAML App in Azure AD
Navigate to the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com/) using an Administrator account.
Select Azure Active Directory from the left navigation panel, then Enterprise applications.
Next click New application, then choose Non-gallery application, fill in an appropriate name, for example, RX SaaS SSO, then click Add.
After adding this new application, navigate to Single sign-on, then choose SAML.
Configure the Entity ID & ACS URL
Click the Edit icon for section 1.
You will be prompted for an Identifier (Entity ID) and a Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL).
The Entity ID will be the root address of your ResourceXpress server, this will be the URL used to access the ResourceXpress admin console via a browser.
Your RX URL is usually https://<company>.rx-cloud.com.
In this example the URL of the ResourceXpress server is https://app.rx.com.
The ACS URL is the same as above with /SsoConsumer added to the end.
Once added click Save found at the top of this pop-up.
Configure User Attributes
Name & Email Address (required)
Next, click the Edit icon for section 2.
From here we will add the required values for ResourceXpress to retrieve user’s names and email addresses.
From this screen, click Add new claim.
