Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the related user in Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
    1. Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
    2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
  2. Configure Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

SP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application, this will redirect to Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

IDP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud for which you set up the SSO.

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Appaegis Isolation Access Cloud for which you set up the SSO.
