SAML group and role mapping

If your organization uses SAML single sign-on (SSO) for authentication and authorization, use the Orgs resource to map SAML roles and groups to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services roles. You can also use the Orgs resource to get details about SAML role and group mappings for an organization.

You can map up to 200 SAML groups or roles to an Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services role. To find a list of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services roles, you can use the Roles resource.

Before you map SAML groups and roles, ensure that the Map SAML Groups and Roles option is enabled in Administrator.

After you map SAML groups and roles to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services roles, you cannot configure user roles or groups for SAML SSO users individually in Administrator or through the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services REST API.

For more information about using SAML SSO, see User Administration in the Administrator help.

Adding SAML group mappings

Add SAML group mappings that map SAML groups to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services roles.

Note: You cannot map a SAML group or role that contains one of the following characters in the name:

•Pipe ( | )
•Semicolon ( ; )
•Comma ( , )

PUT request

To add a mapping between an Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services role and SAML groups, use the following URI:

/public/core/v3/Orgs/<organization ID>/addSamlGroupMappings

If you map a SAML group that doesn't exist in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services creates the group. If a group with the same name exists in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, you can specify whether to reuse the group or create a new group. By default, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services creates a new group with _EXT appended to the name.

Include the following information:

Field	Type	Required	Description
groupMappings	Array	yes	Object that defines the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services role and SAML group mappings.
roleName	String	yes	Include in the groupMappings object. Name of the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services role.
samlGroupNames	String	yes	Include in the groupMappings object Names of the SAML groups to map to the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services role.
reuseGroup	Boolean	--	Whether to use the existing Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services group if the group name is the same as the SAML group name. If false, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services creates a new group. Default is false.

Returns the 204 response code if successful. Returns an error object if errors occurs.

PUT examples

To map the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services Admin role to the Security and Dev-Managers SAML groups, and map the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services Designer role to the Developers SAML group, you might send a request similar to the following example:

PUT <baseApiUrl>/public/core/v3/Orgs/6MRgiMIfvdRfCCLITrLCcI/addSamlGroupMappings HTTP/HTTP version
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
INFA-SESSION-ID: 9KA11tLGqxVcGeul8SQBK3

"samlGroupNames": ["Security","Dev-Managers"]
},
{
"roleName": "Designer",
"samlGroupNames": "Developers"
}
],
"reuseGroup": "true"

}

To add another group mapping to map the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services Admin role to the Administrators SAML group, you might send a request similar to the following example:

Now the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services Admin role is mapped to the Security, Dev-Managers, and Administrators SAML groups.

Adding SAML role mappings

Add SAML role mappings that map SAML roles to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services roles.

Note: You cannot map a SAML group or role that contains one of the following characters in the name:

•Pipe ( | )
