  • Статия

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate Overdrive with Microsoft Entra ID. When you integrate Overdrive with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:

  • Control in Microsoft Entra ID who has access to Overdrive.
  • Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Overdrive with their Microsoft Entra accounts.
  • Manage your accounts in one central location.

Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

  • A Microsoft Entra subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
  • An Overdrive single sign-on (SSO)-enabled subscription.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra single sign-on in a test environment.

  • Overdrive supports SP initiated SSO.

  • Overdrive supports Just In Time user provisioning.

To configure the integration of Overdrive into Microsoft Entra ID, add Overdrive from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps by doing the following:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > New application.
  3. In the Add from the gallery section, type Overdrive in the search box.
  4. In the results pane, select Overdrive, and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.

Alternatively, you can also use the Enterprise App Configuration Wizard. In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Create Overdrive test user

In this section, a user called Britta Simon is created in Overdrive. Overdrive 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 Overdrive, a new one is created after authentication.

You can use any other OverDrive user account creation tools or APIs provided by OverDrive to provision Microsoft Entra user accounts.

Test SSO

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

  • Click on Test this application, this will redirect to Overdrive Sign-on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Overdrive Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

  • You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the Overdrive tile in the My Apps, this will redirect to Overdrive Sign-on URL. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
