Create Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud test user

In this section, a user called B.Simon is created in Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud. Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud supports just-in-time user provisioning, which is enabled by default. There's no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud, a new one is commonly 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 Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud Sign-on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Informatica Intelligent Data Management 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 Informatica Intelligent Data Management 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 Informatica Intelligent Data Management 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 Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud for which you set up the SSO.
