Generic SAML SSO configuration

Follow these steps to configure SSO for any SAML-compliant identity provider:

1. Sign in to your Buddy workspace as an administrator, go to Workspace Settings → SSO, and switch to SAML → Custom.

   Alternatively, use these links for cloud and self-hosted versions respectively:

    https://app.buddy.works.com/WORKSPACE_URL_HANDLE/workspace/sso
    https://INSTANCE_URL/WORKSPACE_URL_HANDLE/workspace/sso

2. Copy the values from these fields in Buddy and set them in your SAML-compliant identity provider:

   • SP Entity ID / Audience URI
   • ACS / SP Assertion Consumer Service / Single Sign-On URL

3. Find these values in your identity provider and set them in Buddy:

   • SSO URL / SAML Endpoint / Identity Provider Single Sign-On URL
   • Issuer
   • Certificate

Workspace SSO configuration

4. Click Test configuration and enable the SSO on success. Buddy will redirect you to the SSO provider's login page.
5. Sign in to authenticate and enable SSO in your workspace.
