Tutorial: Microsoft Entra SSO integration with DocuSign

  • บทความ

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

  • Use Microsoft Entra ID to control who has access to DocuSign.
  • Enable automatic sign-in to DocuSign for your users through their Microsoft Entra accounts.
  • Manage your accounts in one central location: the Azure portal.

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.
  • A DocuSign subscription that's single sign-on (SSO) enabled.
  • Control over your domain DNS. This is needed to claim domain on DocuSign.

Note

This integration is also available to use from Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud environment. You can find this application in the Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud Application Gallery and configure it in the same way as you do from public cloud.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you'll configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO in a test environment to verify that:

  • DocuSign supports service provider SP initiated SSO.

  • DocuSign supports just-in-time user provisioning.

  • DocuSign supports automatic user provisioning.

To configure the integration of DocuSign into Microsoft Entra ID, you must add DocuSign 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 DocuSign in the search box.
  4. Select DocuSign from the 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 DocuSign

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with DocuSign by using a test user named B.Simon. For SSO to work, you must establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the corresponding user in DocuSign.

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

  1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO so that your users can 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 DocuSign SSO to configure the single sign-on settings on the application side.
    1. Create a DocuSign test user to generate a counterpart of B.Simon in DocuSign that's linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of the user.
  3. Test SSO to verify that the configuration works.

Configure Microsoft Entra SSO

To enable Microsoft Entra SSO in the Azure portal, follow these steps:

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

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > DocuSign application integration page, find the Manage section, and then select 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.

    Edit Basic SAML Configuration

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

    a. In the Identifier (Entity ID) textbox, type a URL using the following pattern:

    https://<subdomain>.docusign.com/organizations/<OrganizationID>/saml2

    b. In the Reply URL textbox, type a URL using one of the following patterns:

    Reply URL
    Production :
    https://<subdomain>.docusign.com/organizations/<OrganizationID>/saml2/login/<IDPID>
    https://<subdomain>.docusign.net/SAML/
    QA Instance :
    https://<SUBDOMAIN>.docusign.com/organizations/saml2

    c. In the Sign on URL textbox, type a URL using the following pattern:

    https://<subdomain>.docusign.com/organizations/<OrganizationID>/saml2/login/sp/<IDPID>

Create DocuSign test user

In this section, a user named B.Simon is created in DocuSign. DocuSign 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 DocuSign, a new one is created after authentication.

Note

If you need to create a user manually, contact the DocuSign support team.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

  • Click on Test this application, this will redirect to DocuSign Sign-on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to DocuSign Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

  • You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the DocuSign tile in the My Apps, you should be automatically signed in to the DocuSign 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 DocuSign 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.
