Create Balsamiq Wireframes test user

In this section, a user called Britta Simon is created in Balsamiq Wireframes. Balsamiq Wireframes supports just-in-time user provisioning, which is enabled by default. There is no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in Balsamiq Wireframes, a new one is created after authentication.

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 Balsamiq Wireframes Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Balsamiq Wireframes 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 Balsamiq Wireframes 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 Balsamiq Wireframes 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 Balsamiq Wireframes for which you set up the SSO. For more information, see Microsoft Entra My Apps.
