Tutorial: Microsoft Entra SSO integration with RevSpace

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

  • Control in Microsoft Entra ID who has access to RevSpace.
  • Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to RevSpace 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.
  • RevSpace single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO in a test environment.

  • RevSpace supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
  • RevSpace supports Just In Time user provisioning.

To configure the integration of RevSpace into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add RevSpace from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.

  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 RevSpace in the search box.
  4. Select RevSpace from results panel 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 and walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for RevSpace

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with RevSpace using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the related user in RevSpace.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with RevSpace, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
    1. Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
    2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
  2. Configure RevSpace SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create RevSpace test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in RevSpace that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Configure Microsoft Entra SSO

Follow these steps to enable Microsoft Entra SSO.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > RevSpace > Single sign-on.

  3. On the Select a single sign-on method page, select SAML.

  4. On the Set up single sign-on with SAML page, click the pencil icon for Basic SAML Configuration to edit the settings.

    Edit Basic SAML Configuration

  5. On the Basic SAML Configuration section, perform the following steps:

    a. In the Identifier text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://<CUSTOMER_SUBDOMAIN>.revspace.io/login/callback

    b. In the Reply URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://<CUSTOMER_SUBDOMAIN>.revspace.io/login/callback

  6. Perform the following step if you wish to configure the application in SP initiated mode:

    In the Sign on URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://<CUSTOMER_SUBDOMAIN>.revspace.io/login/callback

    Note

    These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Identifier, Reply URL and Sign on URL. Contact RevSpace Client support team to get these values. You can also refer to the patterns shown in the Basic SAML Configuration section.

  7. RevSpace application expects the SAML assertions in a specific format, which requires you to add custom attribute mappings to your SAML token attributes configuration. The following screenshot shows the list of default attributes.

  8. In addition to above, RevSpace application expects few more attributes to be passed back in SAML response, which are shown below. These attributes are also pre populated but you can review them as per your requirements.

    Name Source Attribute
    Firstname user.givenname
    Lastname user.surname
    jobtitle user.jobtitle
    department user.department
    employeeid user.employeeid
    postalcode user.postalcode
    country user.country
    role user.assignedroles

    Note

    RevSpace expects roles for users assigned to the application. Please set up these roles in Microsoft Entra ID so that users can be assigned the appropriate roles. To understand how to configure roles in Microsoft Entra ID, see here.

  9. On the Set up single sign-on with SAML page, in the SAML Signing Certificate section, find Federation Metadata XML and select Download to download the certificate and save it on your computer.

Create RevSpace test user

In this section, a user called B.Simon is created in RevSpace. RevSpace supports just-in-time provisioning, which is enabled by default. There's no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in RevSpace, a new one is created when you attempt to access RevSpace.

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 RevSpace Sign-on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to RevSpace 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 RevSpace 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 RevSpace 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 RevSpace for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Next steps

Once you configure RevSpace you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
