Umbraco SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) with Ping Federate as IDP
Umbraco SAML Single Sign-On (SSO)
plugin gives the ability to enable SAML Single Sign-On for your Umbraco
applications. Using Single Sign-On you can use only one password to access
your Umbraco application and services. Our plugin is compatible with all the
SAML compliant identity providers. Here we will go through a step-by-step
guide to configure Single Sign-On (SSO) between Umbraco and Ping Federate
considering Ping Federate as IdP. To know more about the features we provide
for Umbraco SSO, click
here.
Select your umbraco version to configure SSO with:
Download
Umbraco SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) module.
For Setting up the module, extract the
umbraco-saml-sso-connector.zip, you will find a DLL file
miniorange-saml-sso.dll, a configuration file
saml.config and a integration.md file which contain the
steps for adding the module into your application.
Add miniorange-saml-sso.dll in the bin folder (where your other
DLL files exist) for your Umbraco site.
Register miniorangesamlsso module for your umbraco SSO
according to the provided steps in the integration.md file.
Add the provided configuration file saml.config in the root
directory for your umbraco site.
Download
Umbraco SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) middleware.
For Setting up the middleware, you will be required to add the below namespaces, services and middleware
in your startup.cs file (marked in green), below here is a sample example
using miniorange.saml;using System.Reflection;namespace Application{public class Startup{ // Add services to the container. public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) { services.AddUmbraco(_env, _config) .AddBackOffice() .AddWebsite() .AddComposers() .Build(); services.AddminiOrangeServices(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()); } public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env) { if (env.IsDevelopment()) { app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage(); } app.UseUmbraco() .WithMiddleware(u => { u.UseBackOffice(); u.UseWebsite(); u.AppBuilder.UseminiOrangeSAMLSSOMiddleware(); }) .WithEndpoints(u => { u.UseInstallerEndpoints(); u.UseBackOfficeEndpoints(); u.UseWebsiteEndpoints(); }); } } }
Run the application when the configuration is done.
After integration, open your browser and browse the plugin dashboard
with the URL below:
https://<umbraco-middleware-base-url>/?ssoaction=config
If the registration page or login page pops up, you have successfully
