Azure as SAML 2.0 Service Provider


I'm looking for help for configuring Azure as SAML2.0 service provider. I have a SAML 2.0 identity provider which i need to integrate with Azure so that applications which leverage Azure can be Single signed on to using my Identity Provider.

I have tried creating an identity provider in Azure Access Control Service ,but seems like it currently supports WS-Federation identity provider only. It does not have any option for adding SAML 2.0 identity provider.

Is there a way to add SAML2.0 identity provider in Azure?


Solution

  • You can't - Azure AD is always the IDP.

    If you want to add your SAML application as an SP, refer Configuring single sign-on to applications that are not in the Azure Active Directory application gallery.
