Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for RunMyProcess

On the Set up Single Sign-On with SAML page, in the SAML Signing Certificate section, find Certificate (Base64) and select Download to download the certificate and save it on your computer.
On the Set up RunMyProcess section, copy the appropriate URL(s) based on your requirement.
