  • A TravelPerk account with Premium subscription.
  • Along with Cloud Application Administrator, Application Administrator can also add or manage applications in Microsoft Entra ID. For more information, see Azure built-in roles.

Scenario description

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

  • TravelPerk supports SP initiated SSO.

  • TravelPerk supports Just In Time user provisioning.

  • TravelPerk supports Automated user provisioning.

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

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, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for TravelPerk

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with TravelPerk 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 TravelPerk.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with TravelPerk, 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 TravelPerk SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create TravelPerk test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in TravelPerk 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 > TravelPerk > 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.

    Screenshot shows to edit Basic S A M L Configuration.

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

    a. In the Identifier (Entity ID) text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://<COMPANY>.travelperk.com/accounts/saml2/metadata/<APPLICATION_ID>

    b. In the Reply URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://<COMPANY>.travelperk.com/accounts/saml2/callback/<APPLICATION_ID>/?acs

    c. In the Sign on URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://<COMPANY>.travelperk.com/

    Note

    These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Identifier, Reply URL and Sign on URL. The values can be found inside your TravelPerk account: go to Company Settings > Integrations > Single Sign On. For assistance, visit the TravelPerk helpcenter.

  6. Your TravelPerk 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. In the default mapping, emailaddress is mapped with user.mail. However, the TravelPerk application expects emailaddress to be mapped with user.userprincipalname. For TravelPerk, you must edit the attribute mapping: click the Edit icon, and then change the attribute mapping. To edit an attribute, just click the attribute to open edit mode.
