SAML Single Sign-On Configuration for Informatica Cloud
Informatica Cloud and your identity provider exchange configuration information when you set up single sign-on.
Informatica Cloud requires identity provider metadata to send authentication requests to the identity provider. The identity provider requires service provider metadata from Informatica Cloud to send authentication responses to Informatica Cloud. SAML and Informatica Cloud attributes such as user roles need to be mapped so that Informatica Cloud can consume the data passed in authentication responses. After you configure single sign-on settings in Informatica Cloud, pass the Informatica Cloud service provider metadata to your identity provider.
Perform the following tasks to configure single sign-on configuration:
- 1. Configure the SAML identity provider and service provider settings and map SAML attributes and user roles to Informatica Cloud attributes and user roles in Informatica Cloud.
- 2. Download the Informatica Cloud service provider metadata from Informatica Cloud and deliver the metadata and the Informatica Cloud URL for your organization to your SAML identity provider administrator.
