Drupal AppStream 2 Integration will allow you to configure Single Sign-On ( SSO ) login between your Drupal site and AWS AppStream2. AWS AppStream 2 SSO integration with your Drupal site will help your users to login into AppStream 2 using their Drupal credentials.
The Drupal SAML IDP - SAML 2.0 Identity Provider Single Sign-On (SSO) Login module is compatible with Drupal 7, Drupal 8 as well as Drupal 9. Here we will go through a step-by-step guide to configure SAML SSO login between Drupal website as IdP ( Identity Provider ) and AWS AppStream2 as SP ( Service Provider ).

If you have any doubts or queries, you can contact us at drupalsupport@xecurify.com. We will help you to configure the module. If you want, we can also schedule an online meeting to help you configure the Drupal SAML Identity Provider - SAML 2.0 as Idp SSO Login module.

2. Configure Drupal site as Identity Provider

• Navigate to the Service Provider Setup tab of the miniOrange SAML Identity Provider module on your Drupal site. There are two way to configure your Identity Provider ( Drupal as SAML IDP ):

A. By Uploading SP metadata:

• Click on UPLOAD SP METADATA link.
• You can either Upload Metadata File and click on Upload button or use a Upload Metadata URL and click on Fetch Metadata.


B. Manual Configuration:

• Navigate to Service Provider Setup tab of the miniOrange Drupal IDP module.
• Provide the required settings (i.e. Service Provider Name, SP Entity ID or Issuer, ACS (Assertion Consumer Service) URL, X.509 Certificate (Optional)) as provided by your Service Provider AppStream2 ( AppStream2 as SP ).

Service Provider Name	Give any appropriate name to your Service Provider
SP Entity ID or Issuer	Get the SP Entity ID or Issuer from the metadata (https://signin.aws.amazon.com/static/saml-metadata.xml). You will find the value in the first line against entityID. It is set to urn:amazon:webservices but may vary for non-US regions.
ACS URL	https://signin.aws.amazon.com/saml. This might vary for non-US regions in which case you would find it in metadata (https://signin.aws.amazon.com/static/saml-metadata.xml) as Location attribute of AssertionConsumerService.
Relay State	https://console.aws.amazon.com. (You can set value for relay state depending on where you want to redirect the user after SSO.)
X.509 Certificate	Note: You can find the X.509 Certificate in Your SP-Metadata XML file enclosed in tag X509Data having attribute as X509Certificate.
NameID Format	urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress
Assertion Signed	Checked
