Tutorial: Microsoft Entra SSO integration with Mural Identity

  • Članak

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate Mural Identity with Microsoft Entra ID. When you integrate Mural Identity with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:

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

Scenario description

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

  • Mural Identity supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
  • Mural Identity supports Just In Time user provisioning.
  • Mural Identity supports Automated user provisioning.

Note

Identifier of this application is a fixed string value so only one instance can be configured in one tenant.

To configure the integration of Mural Identity into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Mural Identity 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 Mural Identity in the search box.
  4. Select Mural Identity 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, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for Mural Identity

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Mural Identity 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 Mural Identity.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Mural Identity, 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 Mural Identity SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create Mural Identity test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Mural Identity that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Create Mural Identity test user

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

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

Change log

Next steps

Once you configure Mural Identity 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.
