SAML Single Sign On (SSO) into Drupal using Azure AD as IDP

Download Module

Drupal Azure AD SSO setup will allow your user to login to your Drupal site using their Azure AD Credentials. The Drupal SAML module gives the ability to enable SAML Single Sign-On for Drupal. This module is compatible with all the SAML Identity Providers. Here, we will go through a guide to configure SAML SSO between Drupal as Service Provider and Azure AD as Identity Provider. By the end of this guide, users from Azure AD should be able to login into the Drupal site.
