SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) For Shopify Using WSO2 as Identity Provider

miniOrange allows WSO2 to act as an IDP (Identity Provider), which allows users to Single Sign-On (SSO) into Shopify using WSO2 Credentials. Our application is compatible with all the SAML / OAuth-compliant Identity Providers. We will go through a step-by-step guide to configure Single Sign-On (SSO) into Shopify using WSO2 as IdP (Identity Provider) and Shopify store as SP (Service Provider).

To configure SSO into Shopify with WSO2 as IDP (SAML), you will need to install the miniOrange Shopify Single Sign On - SSO Login Application on your store.
