Microsoft Entra SSO integration with tesma

In this article, you'll learn how to integrate tesma with Microsoft Entra ID. tesma provides SSO to tesma Essential and other tesma portals. When you integrate tesma with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:

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

You'll configure and test Microsoft Entra single sign-on for tesma in a test environment. tesma supports both SP and IDP initiated single sign-on and Just In Time user provisioning.

Prerequisites

To integrate Microsoft Entra ID with tesma, you need:

Add application and assign a test user

Before you begin the process of configuring single sign-on, you need to add the tesma application from the Microsoft Entra gallery. You need a test user account to assign to the application and test the single sign-on configuration.

Add tesma from the Microsoft Entra application gallery to configure single sign-on with tesma. For more information on how to add application from the gallery, see the Quickstart: Add application from the gallery.

Create and assign Microsoft Entra test user

Follow the guidelines in the create and assign a user account article to create a test user account called B.Simon.

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, and assign roles. The wizard also provides a link to the single sign-on configuration pane. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards..

Configure Microsoft Entra SSO

Complete the following steps to enable Microsoft Entra single sign-on.

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

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > tesma > 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, select the pencil icon for Basic SAML Configuration to edit the settings.

    Screenshot shows how to edit Basic SAML Configuration.

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

    a. In the Identifier textbox, type the value: urn:identityprovider.chg-meridian.com

    b. In the Reply URL textbox, type the URL: https://identityprovider.chg-meridian.com

  6. If you want to configure SP initiated SSO, then perform the following step:

    In the Sign on URL textbox, type the URL: https://qamajor.tesma.com

  7. 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.

    Screenshot shows the Certificate download link.

  8. On the Set up tesma section, copy the appropriate URL(s) based on your requirement.

    Screenshot shows how to copy configuration appropriate URL.

Configure tesma SSO

To configure single sign-on on tesma side, you need to send the downloaded Federation Metadata XML and appropriate copied URLs from the application configuration to tesma support team. They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides.

Create tesma test user

In this section, you create a user called Britta Simon in tesma. Work with tesma support team to add the users in the tesma platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.

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 tesma Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to tesma 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 tesma 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 tesma 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 tesma for which you set up the SSO. For more information, see Microsoft Entra My Apps.

Once you configure tesma 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 Cloud App Security.
