Unable to set up SAML in a custom Azure AD enterprise application

Question

Hi all,

Greetings. I am trying to set up my Azure AD as a SAML IdP without luck. I created a custom app and tried to navigate to the Single Sign-On tab mentioned in this tutorial https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/add-application-portal-setup-sso, but what I got was the following screen:

Attempting to follow the instructions on the page, I provided the SP signing certificate, SP ACS endpoint as a redirect URL, SP SLS endpoint as the front-channel logout URL, and enabled Access tokens and ID tokens in the Implicit grant and hybrid flows as the following screenshot:


but still without luck, navigating to the "Single Sign-On" screen still shows the same instructions. Could someone point me out what I have missed?

Thanks!

Hello @Alfred See ,

Thanks for reaching out.

Could you please try creating application from "Enterprise applications blade" by selecting third option ( which is Integrate any other application you don't find in the gallery (Non-gallery) ) as shown below and you would find SAML SSO settings.

Application creation:

SSO setting once App created

Because, if you create application either from "Apps Registrations" blade or selecting below option from "Enterprise applications balde" then above error is expected.

Hope this helps.
